yah a hair dyer or heat gun works best heat it up and just try to take it off with your fingernails... unless you dont care use a razor blade

stickers

I got off what I could by hand(fingernails) and went to the hardware store and bought a small can of mineral spitits, put some on a rag and it all came off easy! no harm to the paint!

If I have to remove decals from my bike, I try a new stunt. 9 out of 10 times the bike will slam the ground and remove the decal...Problem solved .......You can do the same thing if you like that used look in a new jacket or pants..........keep it real
