Removing old decals over the car
Yea.. Im sure a lot of ppl here purchased their cars used, but anyways, the point is. I have soo many decals I wanna remove from windows, but they just seem eternally stuck. Any ideas how I can remove them besides scraping?

you need to use a straight razor blade scraper, and lots of windex.
Never scrap the glass dry, soak it and scrap it, you will have no problem. |

If you have any glue left on the body/windows you can use this product called "Goo Gone". You can probably pick it up at walmart or home-depot. It works really well.
Hairspray will also remove glue/etc but I'm not sure how well it is for the paint job

WD-40 will lossen the adhesive on the stickers then use a straight razor to take it off. It works really good.

I had the same problem when I bought my car. I used a hairdryer. It heats the glue up, it came right off after I heated it.
