All you have to do is keep a steady pressure on it and pull directly back over onto itself. a little goo gone will take the sticky residue off.

Photoshop....




LOL!!!

I couldn't resist!!!

I used my heat gun to get it warm, so I could get a corner peeled up, and started peeling away. Washed the car and used lighter fluid to remove the residue after I was done.

Yep, naptha, same stuff. One of the graphics companies instructions say to wipe the car down 10 times with the stuff before applying the graphics. Worked pretty good at getting the old adhesive off. But you have to WASH THE CAR FIRST. Any dirt left on there and you'll scratch the heck out of the paint, you do have to use some elbow grease just like anything else.

Post some pics as son as you're done...Some Stangs do look good with the rocker stripes but IMO the car looks much cleaner without them...
