View Full Version : decals
i've been resprayin bit's of me car an gettin rid of a bit of rust on me arches. as a result i've had to peel off sum of the decal strips down the side. the problem is they seem to flake off and won't come off in one piece. i tried hot water an it seemed to work a bit better, any ideas?

i ad the same problem..i got as much off as possible with hot water get a rag and soak it in hot water then hold it on the part ur guna start peeling for like 15 seconds or somin.. but there was a tiny line left along the bottom.. ,, used tcut which eventually made it come off after a couple off weeks..
if it is the vynal youre referring too then a heat gun on low heat wafted over vynal will work. Just watch paint
Be careful using tcut as there should be no paint line (indication of a respray). Any remaining glue you can remove using stick stuff remover (stuff thats designed to disolve glue not paint) - get it fromhalforeds and the like.
the paint will be brighter though in that sectiojn - I recommend light polish with t-cut, then reseal bodywork with super resin polish
If you can afford it get a body shop to buff it up for ya
