How to Take Stickers Off Car Body
Materials You’ll Need:
- Hair dryer
- Plastic scraper
- Rubbing alcohol
- Goo Gone
- Warm water
- Dish soap
- Microfiber cloth
Step-by-Step Instructions:
1. Heat the Sticker with a Hair Dryer
Heat the sticker with a hair dryer for a few minutes. This will soften the adhesive and make it easier to remove.
2. Use a Plastic Scraper to Remove the Sticker
Once the sticker is heated, use a plastic scraper to gently pry it off the car body. Be careful not to scratch the paint.
3. Rubbing Alcohol to Remove Adhesive Residue
If there is any adhesive residue left on the car body, use a cotton ball or microfiber cloth dampened with rubbing alcohol to remove it. Rubbing alcohol is a solvent that will dissolve the adhesive.
4. Use Goo Gone to Remove Tough Adhesive
If the rubbing alcohol does not remove all of the adhesive, use a commercial adhesive remover such as Goo Gone. Apply a small amount of Goo Gone to a cotton ball or microfiber cloth and rub it over the adhesive residue.
5. Wash the Car with Warm Water and Dish Soap
Once the adhesive residue is removed, wash the car with warm water and dish soap to remove any remaining Goo Gone or rubbing alcohol.
6. Dry the Car with a Microfiber Cloth
Dry the car with a clean microfiber cloth to avoid water spots.
Tips:
- Test any cleaning solution on a small area of the car body before using it on the entire car.
- Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners on the car body.
- If you are having trouble removing a sticker, take it to a professional detailer.
