Sticker glue

Ok I had a good go at getting the stickers off my Kwak with minimal glue left on there.
But it was tough, the glue isn’t shifting, I’ve used a little bit of turps, then white spirit. But nothing moved it.

What do I need to do this and keep the paint on there?

Thanks Thumbs Up

A hair dryer should work to melt it.

Or use some boiling water with washing up liquid in it and wipe it all away when the water melts it.

I would use a bit of petrol. Works better than white spirit. Thumbs Up

Go to halfrauds or similar motor factors
and get some degreaser =]
or a proffesional valeter once showed a way to do it is, using a blunt razor blade =]

Why spend money and time, when boiling water takes it all away?

Hairdryer to get the sticker off.
Any residue left if it's on plastic then isopropanol or Butter/marge!

Lighter fuel works a treat

Maybe stickers have changed and using butter doesn't leave a greasy mess that needs wiping off.

I have always just boiled a kettle and wiped the melted glue away, the longest part is waiting for the kettle.
