Removing vinyl decals from car windows.

Ditto nail polish remover. I recently started removing graphics from my vehicle and thought i would share the method that worked successfully for me. Usually this will include applying the product to the sticker liberally and letting it sit for 5 10 minutes. Clean the glass with auto glass cleaner and microfiber cloth to remove any dirt and grime.

Apply the adhesive remover in the method specified by the manufacturer. Use a hairdryer on the high heat setting. Heat it with a hairdryer. Then use a clean cloth to wipe the wd 40 off the decal and it should peel off easily.

Hold the razor blade at an angle and gently pry up the edge of the label. If there is a clear weak spot on your decal make sure to start removal there. Spray the decal evenly with the wd 40. Hold it over decal until you start to see the edges fray.

Doing so can gouge and chip your vehicle s finish. A razor blade can come in quite handy for removing unwanted decals from windows never use one to remove a sticker on your car s paint. Unless you re using it to remove a decal from a window don t use a razor blade. Peel or scrape away the decal.

If necessary urge it along with the putty knife. Heat will loosen the adhesive behind the decal and make it easier to remove. To remove adhesive from car windows pour some rubbing alcohol onto a couple of cotton balls and press it onto the sticker. That s a lot more expensive to fix.

Regardless of the type of car emblems or vehicle decals you are removing the process is always the same. Leave the wet cotton ball on the car sticker for a few minutes to allow the alcohol to loosen the adhesive.
