Removing stickers from bodywork?
Discussion
The previous owner of my Griff has put little stickers under the wing indicators, and right hand boot lid, it's an outline of the UK with the English part filled in with a Union Jack. They are about an inch and half high. The dealership has managed to remove the one on the boot, which is great, but they can't get the ones off the wings. Obviously they can't go too far, as they don't want to damage the paintwork. As soon as I have the car I want to try and get the remaining ones off, we all have different ideas and tastes and fair enough, but I'd like the car be as original in appearance as posdible.
Any ideas about how to remove these things would be greatly appreciated, sorry about starting a new thread, as I already have one elsewhere, but I thought it didn't fit in with the topic of my last thread.

hairdryer, finger nails then white spirit to remove any glue residue.
Thanks, the garage have managed to get one off, the most important one on the boot lid.I'm going to have a go at removing the ones on the wings.
All I'm worried about is overheating the paintwork, but I'll have to be extra careful.

WD40 is known for removing the little foam sticky things so might work if that is what is behind the sticker, and won't damage your paintwork.
Yes, but I'm wondering...the one on the boot probably came off quite easy, but the ones on the wings may have been baked on by heat from the engine bay? I'll soon find out though.Gassing Station | Griffith | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
