How to remove body stickers?

Hey folks,

How do I go about removing my "Sport" stickers without screwing up the paint finish?

Carefully heat up small sections with a heat gun and slowly peal it away little by little. Let the paint cool and clean any residue with goo gone or 3M adhesive remover. Don't over cook the paint or the sticker. And don't try to remove the residue until the paint is cool again. You can strip clear coat with the adhesive remover if the paint is too hot.

 

If you're talking about the TRD bedside decals, I just used my finger nails and then cleaned with windex. I cleaned with windex because a few people I asked about using goo gone said that prolonged use with goo gone in one area can damage the paint due to the oils in goo gone. I say prolonged because some are stickier than others, mine for example is a 2008 and those decals have been on there for over 4 years now. Windex works pretty well though with some elbow grease. Using your fingernails to peel those decals off are a pain in the ass cause a lot of times it just wants to come off in small pieces but just be patient and work it the best you can. My fingers were raw after I took mine off this past Friday.

 

Use an eraser wheel. That's what I did.

 

Pick the corner with your finger nail, peel off slowly, goo gone, wash the truck, watch football...

 

This , except the boring football part

 

Thanks folks...beer and some patients. Got it.

My paint gets scratched when I look at it so take it easy.

 

pickup a can of this. slowly and carefully peel back a corner pull off. remove residue with sprayway and microfiber cloth. don't forget to wax area after.

 

He's foreign, "football" is what they call soccer.

 

This sprayway glass cleaner works amazing! Good to know all it take is a little patients and beer. Definitely use the wax afterwards though!
