Removing car dealer stickers.

I recently had to deal with this. Except the sticker turned out not to be a sticker, it was a foam adhesive that all remained on the vehicle after the decal itself was removed. A 10-minute project turned into an hour and a half.
 
When I worked for a dealer we always used plastic razor blades. Follow with goo gone for adhesive residue.

I work at a dealership and remove these every day. We use a heat gun ( if you dont want buy a heat gun use a hair dryer ). Then to remove the glue use prep solent, thinner, or fingernail polish remover.

I have used a blow dryer it works well. I also used goo gone and a plastic razor blade. or slid a piece of fishing line behind it and it peeled it right off.
 
To install your dealer sticker you will need to wipe it down with prep solvent or the sticker will never stick.

same, I've used a combination of every single one of these and then some more prepping used cars to be shown on a lot. Sometimes you need to use a dulled razor blade to get them started, in some extreme cases we've needed to have it sent to a body shop to be re painted. I'd say the safest one way is using a pressure washer at an angle, and going back with adhesive remover.
