how do i get it off my rear dealer name thing started to come off so i took it the rest of the way what can i do to get the resudue off?

 

iono if it would be a good idea on glass but i usually use WD-40 to remove the adhesive residue on other surfaces

 

Its not on the glass its on the paint on the other side where it says cooper s its like a 1/2 in x 4 in rectangle near the bottom of the trunk

 

goo off

 

this isnt my car but thats where its located and its discolored so you can see it well

 

try car polish... it worked for me

 

Assuming its vynl

After your next wash (important to remove all the dust/dirt/road salt/grime) saturate it some warm to the touch water then take a razor blade and gently separate the decal formt he paint, sideways pressure only, it will likely leave a little residue, take a clay bar (got mine form autozone, you can search for more details on the usefulness of clay bars) use some QD or Lube locally and revome the residue and it should help to smooth any colorations, then go a head and wax the area to seal and protect the paint.

Should the clay bar be completely ineffective then I'd consider a polish or wet sanding, start light abrasives to risk the least cutting into the clear coat.

 

Methylated spirits (rubbing alcohol) is perfect for that..

 

I use lighter fluid and the ether in it disolves the glue.

 

Goo-gone, stinky yellow fluid in small, clear plastic bottle. Probably in the cleaning-chemicals section of your grocery store. It's perfect for this kind of stuff. Put some of it on a papertowel & rub it on the sticker-goo. When most of it's gone, take a fresh paper towel, more chemical, and repeat.

 

Goof-off, Goo-Gone, or rubbing alcohol (standard kind you buy at the pharmacy or Target or wherever) will do the trick!

first you kick the nuts in of the dealer who put that **** on your car.

Goof off works well, lighter fluid can be cheaper and also works decently. getting it warm helps a lot.

 

Also a good point! Although I may not have stated in in the same way, I agree!

WD40 for me... and a plastic razor blade.

 

lol yeah I cut to the chase in my diction

 

Isopropol alcohol (rubbing alcohol) works for me every time as well. Also agree with the goo gone and goof off suggestions. I apply it with a small foam applicator. That way you can "hold" the moisture against the decal. Really speeds things up compared to just wiping on top.

 

i also like to use motor spray for RC cars. they clean adhesives off very
well and works for stripping wax too for small areas where im going to
apply decals or a new trim piece.

great for cleaning scissors and blades too, after cutting decals or
e-tape, etc.

one of the must-haves for my garage.

 

i tried the rubbing alcohol and it seemed to get the top layer off but not the bottom

 

Dealers still do that? (Not in California!)

 

Take it to the dealer & have them remove it for free since they wern't paying you for advertising nor asked your permission to put it on your car in the first place.
I had the Dealerships window tint installer redo one window because he put a label showing the degree of tint (Hello) WTF is this?
