Decal Removal |
|||||||||||
|
|||||||||||
Step 1 - Heat It. Use a heat gun or hair dryer to heat up a small region of the decal. This will make the decal more pliable and reduce the adhesive bond. Note: Be careful not to overheat the bodywork or the paint may blister. |
|||||||||||
Step 2 - Peel it. Starting at a corner, lift the decal away from the bodywork. |
|||||||||||
Step 3 - Keep peeling. Use both hands as you get to the wider sections of the decal. Go SLOWLY. Too much tension will cause the decal to tear. |
|||||||||||
Step 4 - Re-heat. The heated area will cool off after a few minutes, causing the adhesive bond to increase again. You will notice that the tension will increase and the decal will tend to tear easily. |
|||||||||||
Step 5 - Repeat. Simply repeat Step 1 and continue until decal is removed. |
|||||||||||
Step 6 - Clean. After the decal is removed there may be adhesive residue remaining. Use an adhesive remover to remove residue. We (Tapeworkls) really like the citrus-based adhesive removers like GooGone because they are non-toxic, biodegradable, and can be readily found at hardware, department, and grocery stores. |
