Bumper sticker?

Here's a couple of options

1) Goo Gone
2) WD-40
3) A rag soaked in hot water and pressed against the sticker
4) Hair dryer

What in the hell did you put a bumper sticker on for?!

WD-40 works well, as does rubbing alcohal (BEWARE...this will remove any and all wases and protectants you have on your paint.

You could always clay bar the area. This will also remove any and all protectants. CLAY WILL WORK THOUGH.

The best product I've ever found for use for every type of adhesive residue (from tape, stickers) and gum/tar/etc.


Safe enough (cirtrus based) to use to remove gum from a baby's hair.


"De-Solv-IT"


The De-Solv-IT actualy soaks under plastic and paper bumper stickers and removes them like magic -- you have to see it to believe it (and I don't own stock in the company).

Highly recommended....


It you want to stick to "official car products", check Griot's and they have some special stuff (cars only) that 3M makes...

Use a hair dryer to heat it up and peel it off, then use Goo-gone, or a little bit of Gasoline, that should do the trick.
