[jsgolfer]

just black, graphics are gay and your car is tight without them!

Graphics have a place and purpose.

if you take time and choose decals the suit the car, you'll look great.

personally i think the only two proteges which looked good with decals were Pirana and Equinox

i love alot of graphics, and still defend them all the time abt not being rice. it is just time for a change and i want to remove most of the blue off the outside. i might go with somthing almost the same but i am thinking a pearelecent black,c/f, type of scheme...... i will see what we come up with over the winter.......... it might be somthing just totally wild which would be great for show. i dunno........

btw anybody know of a goos adhesive remover that wont strip clear coat?

 

[ForceFed]

Use a heat gun....."Goo gone" ...works great too.


*EDIT*...It not Goo GOne I was thinking of ..It called "Oops!" multi-purpose remover...Works great for sticker residue....I had to run out and double check the name of it.

 

[joka1]

i tried a heat gun and got most the blue off and tried using goo gone to get the leftover adhesive off but it is being a pita.

Body shops use this thing called an eraser to remove Stickers and pin striping...It is a big gummy wheel in a drill the Erases the sticker...It basically grabs and puls it uff in tiny pieces and feels similar to a pencil eraser...hence its name I guess...I have seen them in work and they ROCK...I dont know where to get one or how well they work on large areas either...I would assume just fine...They dont hurt the paint either.

 

[joka1]

right on, i will begin searching for one, or i will just call my painter and see if he will help. thanks alot

Yup...This works really well because of petroleum distillates i beleive...But yes it works...I use it on vinyl floor glue and that s*** is wicked!

 

[joka1]

allright i will try that tomorrow

I believe you have/had reflective graphics? Atleast it looked that way. I have a cutter /plotter and do stickers/decals for myself and friends. Have put on and removed a bunch of stickers/decals and have found that reflective is a B@#ch. Only thing I've found that works well is 3M adhesive remover. The reason why? 3M makes the adhesive used on most reflective vinyls and well their adhesive remover tends to work the best.

DO what you can and then claybar the whole car. That should get every thing off.
