Default Rocker Stripes are going..Updated

After a year of debating if I like them or not... I'm going to take the rocker stripes off.

I just need to warm them with a hair dryer and peel?

I have goo gone.. will there be a lot of adhesive?

Any tips?

I should have done this when it was 105 degrees out.. now it's in the 70s.


<<<< I clayed today.. very simple. Man.. what a difference. I can't believe it took me so long.. and it was free!

Good choice on removing them. Use a hair dryer and then clean it up with the goo gone once its off. Just take your time.

I live in teh south so I just started a corner and pulled them right off- the majority came off in one piece and after I washed/ clay bared it and everything you cant tell they were even there.

At 70 degrees, you don't need anything to peel them off.
Just start with a corner and pull with your fingers consistently.
Use clay bar for the remaining specs of glue and you're done.

Mine stayed on my car barely a week. Didn't like those.

that was pretty easy. Took about an hour to take them off. Around the mustang lettering was sort of sort of a pain. Looks much cleaner.
