As a car owner, you are probably doing all precautions to keep your vehicle’s exterior clean and free of damage. However, a simple task of removing stickers from your car can ruin all your effort if you don’t know how to do it properly.
When removing stickers from your car, do not use pointed objects on the body paint, as that can cause scratches. You can only use pointed objects like blades and razors when removing stickers on the glass panels. Also, never use corrosive liquids such gasoline or paint thinner. Harsh chemicals can remove the stickers but will also damage the underlying paint. Here are some tips on how to remove stickers from your auto paint without doing harm.
A hair dryer is one of the most reliable tools to remove stickers from your car paint. With the right amount of heat and distance, it can harden the sticker and soften the adhesive layer. Using a hard plastic card, scrape away at angle and the sticker will be removed easily. It is advisable to do this method right after washing your car.
Apply a mixture of shampoo and water to the stickers. The mixture will soften the stickers over time and can be easily removed using a soft sponge, rags or microfiber cloth.
Another way to remove stickers from your car paint is to purchase label and sticker remover products which are acetone free. You can check out some these products at the car accessories stores near you. These products can remove any adhesive substances from your car without harming the paint.
There might be some adhesive residue left on the car paint after removing the stickers. A good tool to remove the residue is margarine. Just spread some of it to the adhesive residue and allow it to sit for a couple of minutes. After that, you can easily remove all the traces of adhesives and margarine by a microfiber cloth.
