Thumbs up

There was a thread back in late march on how someone removed the stickers from their sunvisor but I could not find it. Does anyone remember how do do it? Preferably without leaving any marks.

Thanks,
Kris

In my car the sticker is on the window..

Generally the trick with removinging stickers is by heating them, a hairdryer should do the trick.

Good luck

acetone or nail polish remover does the job. Just make sure to soak them well before stripping them.

Great, thanks for the replies gents. I will have to give it a shot this week. If one does not work I will try the other.

Hello: I find the warning stickers distasteful and would like to remove them. Has anybody actually done that? Is acetone or nail polish remover the tool? Did it stain the sunshade? Any help is greatly appreciated.

FlowerFred gave you a good reply with a time proven method. Try gentle warming with a hair dryer.

I'd wait for kigerka to post his results. A few more days shouldn't be too hard to wait...
