De-vynling a Breeze

[Ollie]

Hey all I need some advice as to what the best way is to remove vynl decals from a car, as I intend to remove the 'Breeze' decals on my EG (as it is getting a 1.8 dropped into it over thenext couple of weeks).

Thanks in advance.

heat gun, or if you cant get hold of one try a hair dryer

Is it vinyl or is it the hard plastic "H" (Honda) type of decal? If it's vinyl you can use a heat gun to heat it up a little bit then pull it off with you fingers. Then clean up the sticky stuff that's left with so goop remover, or I use WD40 and a really soft 100% cotton cloth. If you don't have a heatgun it will just take a little longer. 3M makes a chemical remover but I think it's abour $15 USD + S&H. Let me know and I can get some out to you if you want.

to get the stickyness off (if any) try using eucalyptus (spelling?) oil..

works good

if i had a breeze with a 1.8 id keep the breeze stickers on it

doesnt it leave marks where the paint is different under the sticker and everywhere else of the car?

[Slow96GSR]

If the paint has faded yes or if he scratches it.

u guys are funny eucaliptus oil and wd40 may work but to do it right "WAX AND GREASE REMOVER"(less than $10) but ur right and tipically any solvent will do the trik but eucaliptus oil will damage ur paint if not cleaned off properly

^^ bah. I found that good ol' metho worked fine for getting the rest of the adhesive shit off.

Nah the paint is hardly any different, I can notice a bit, but its because I knew that the Breeze stickers were there, all me mates can't tell the difference.

Oh yeah, [ricer] it's goin to the paint shop after the new engine has been dropped in.

[krasyvy]

did u keep the sticker?

i want it man..

[Paul1985]

if he used the hairdryer/heatgun.. The sticker is bound to be destroyed.
I doubt it would come off all in one piece in any circumstance though.

[crx_boy7]

metho is a solvent , but its also used to clean off exes paint!

[SlobberGoat]

Definately keep the breeze sticker on.
