Re: Removing Decals
Easy Matt
I don't have much hair left, so I bought myself a hair dryer just for this purpose LOL
Just blow hot air onto the surface where the decal is and peel it off, it won't leave any marks whatsoever.
This method is also very handy to use with registration stickers and even badges and it hasn't failed me once.
The good thing about using this method with plastic badges, is that you will be able to re-use them again in the future if you want to.

This stuff will remove anything! It will leave no damage and your x-trail will smell good too!
Ok......it's a secret about the orange peel method. Don't tell anyone!
Here in Aus we can buy your secret Orange Peel scrub in a spray boottle.
By memory its called 'Orange Cleen', great for removing grease and oil from your hands as well.

Re: Removing Decals
Thread moved to the Care Care section where the "orange" flavor is more appropriate LOL

Re:
Buy a 4WD sticker and make it look like it's running over the family stickers. he he.
Are the stickers on the window or the paint?
If on the window, easy, just use a sharp razor blade.
If on the paint try turps or a solvent like acetone. Careful with the solvents cause excess rubbing could take the paint off.

Re:
Regardless if the stickers are on the glass (easier to remove) or paint (which is a stupid place to stick them), I suggest you use a hair dryer on each of the stubborn stickers and heat them up enough for the glue to become soft and then start peeling each of the stickers individually.
I think I mentioned this method in the this thread already

Re: Removing Decals
If the stickers are on the paint then organise one of the mobile paint repair vans to come around when you remove the stickers by whatever means you need to (acetone, turps, scraper, wet&dry sandpaper) and then get them to touch-up the paint finish.
Very cheap for a single panel.
