So I have a decal on the side of my car, been on there for a good 2 years now.
But I want it gone.
Any tips on how to safely remove it, I'm guessing just hot soapy water, but I don't want to ruin the paintwork any more.
Any suggestion =)

Bit of heat, and an old bank card is how I get them off. Not too much heat though, as could damage the paint. Then some soapy water to remove the glue, and a good polish as the paint may have faded slightly!

I had stickers all over my scooby, i hated them with a vegance
It took paint thinners to remove them.....
Just requires a second deep cut to remove the swirls though
