    Haha, I've always said the same exact thing

    Isn't this the same thing with a brand on your monitor, phone, and almost everything else..

    No. I don't mind if it says Audi or even Ford. I do mind when it has the dealers name. My monitor does not say Walmart on it.

    Re: Taking off Dealers Sticker

    You can use a solvent / auto magic has a really nice solvent product that will help you a lot.

    And also there is an drill attachment of ruber / specially to remove all type's of decal's
    i purchase mine at a body shop supply. Back in l.a

    that thing work's fine / you can use either one
    the auto magic solvent come's only in a one gallon / aluminum can. The no.#40 i think is the code for it

    Re: Taking off Dealers Sticker

    i work at a dealership part time as a detailer and when a car sells i pull the window sticker off and use a razor blade and scrape any remaining paper off the window. then i use some kind of glass cleaner spray on the window, and use the razor blade again and get all the glue. i have never scratched one window, you just have to make sure theres enough lubrication on the window

    A plastic razor blade and some adhiesive remover will do the job.

    Re: Taking off Dealers Sticker

    I just purchased a new Ford F-150 and it had 3 dealer badges, 1 1/4 high and 5" long, the ENTIRE back was 3m tape (something close perhaps). They do this to all their trucks. It was an ungodly mess even with fishing line due to the huge amount of tape used.

    Re: Taking off Dealers Sticker

    of course the vinyl stickers with the heat of hair direr removed but you need to peal them off with the assistance of your nails so that the heat may not burn your hand and peal them off from one corner then the other. slightly do it and you will find the the surface of your car not damaged by it hope it will be helpful to you best of luck dear.
