Many decals, stickers, and emblems are easy to remove from a vehicle, but some are more stubborn. If you're having trouble removing decals from your truck, try using heat, which melts the glue holding the sticker in place and makes it easier to scrape away. You must use caution, however, to avoid stripping the paint beneath the decal during the removal process. When done properly, you should have a decal-free truck in an hour or less, depending on how long the sticker has been in place.
Use a blow dryer to slowly heat one edge of the decal. Continue until the edge begins to peel away from the truck. Pull away as much of the decal as possible.
Repeat the process of heating the edges and peeling off the decal until the bulk of it is removed. Do not hold the blow dryer to one specific area for a long period of time, or the paint beneath could be damaged.
Spray adhesive remover onto the truck where the decal was attached to break up any residue that was left behind. Use a plastic kitchen spatula to scrape away the remaining adhesive.
Wash the area of the truck where the decal was removed with warm soapy water to clean away any remaining debris. Wipe dry with a clean towel.
Take the truck to a professional automotive detailer to repair any paint damage caused by the decal. Alternatively, wax and polish the car to draw attention away from the damaged area, if necessary.
