while I was painting my windscreen my brother decided to help me out and take off my decals for me, since he had taken his off 2 days earlier and did a good job I let him at it and continued on my work. He comes back 2 minutes later and says all done that was easy. Well all he did was take the graphics off the adhesive, so now I'm stuck with a crap load of glue and no decals. I have tried a few things to get it off but at the rate I'm going it will take me months. anyone have any tips to get it off easier.

That's what I have been using, that and a plastic putty knife. It took me about 20 mins to clear a spot about the size or a half dollar. The adhesive is all still intact i think that might be whats making it so hard. He didn't get any of it just the graphic.

Well then use Goo Gone and a Hair Dryer... Not too close with the heat or the results will be very bad...
Kind of just wave it back and forth over the small area that you are working at a time.

I thought that I would be able to take mine off too but ended up using a hair dryer and sanded the adhesive away. Repainting anyway so not worried.FROM WORK:

if you plan on painting it correctly anyway the fastest way I did was brakekleen and a razor blade, making sure to wipe excess off fairly quickly otherwise it will eat the paint.
!!!Warning!!! wont look that good if you don't plan on painting.

Just pulled mine all off and I used windex first, then used WD40 and one of those green scrub pads. came right off. I used a heat gun too though to get a major part of the glue off with the decals. All you can do is try it. Hope it works for youR.I.P. CYBERPOET

Guess i just gotta soak and scrub, oh well. I don't know about the scotchbrite though my brother used it at first and kinda scratched my back end. But then again I guess i could just buff the new ones out with those ones. Oh boy I got a long weekend.
