its been covered like 10 already covered. try searching. ive found a heat gun, and wd-40 works swell. some say brake fluid, ive tried it, works okay to get sticky gum off. if u dont wana spend 12 hours doing it, go get a pinstripe remover attatchment wheel for a drill from auto zone ( ive never used ) good luck.

Heat gun or blow dryer. Then some Goof Off to take off the residue. Acetone works good too.

Get the 3M pinstripe remover tool. You can get it at NAPA. Cost is any where from $25-$35 depending on who has it. It goes in a power drill. Worth every penny. They last quite a while. A whole ski can be stripped clean in about an hour. No chemicals needed.

If your ski is painted over the orig gelcoat, dont use acetone

Sticker removal wheel (3M or other brand)

If using a heat gun on the hood, use a low setting and be careful, or you'll be removing a lot more than the decals.

what about

supejet hood stickers the hood is made of plastice and has paint no gelcoat. how do you remove there

I use WD-40, but you have to be sure to wash off everything fairly quickly. Otherwise you will get more coming off than you wanted.

I would stick to the 3m wheel and don't burn the paint off, keep it slow and steady.

Well to remove the vinyl what I did was peel back the corners with my fingernail and started to pull no problems took under 30min to remove all from a stock 90 sj

I have had good luck with aresol paint remover that you get at an autoparts store. peal off the sticker first, then use the stripper to remove the residue, do not spray it on and leave it. spray on, start using a plastic scraper immediatley.... do not use this on your hood, that paint will come off.

use the wheel works best
