As you may know i just got my s13 and the old geezer before me put Harley stickers all over the back glass. What is the best way, or best stuff to get this crap off with?

to get the sticker off, put a hairdryer on it for a little bit. once the sticker gets warm it will peel right off and not break into a million pieces. to get the line of crap off that forms around the sticker, goo-gone works good.

yea just use some sort of remover and a razor blade. you wont scratch the glass dont worry...but be careful not to cut your finger like i tend to do with my careless self.

If you cant find or dont have goo-gone, rubbing alcohol works well for the sticky stuff.

yeah just take off what you can and let the goo-be-gone do all the work.
that stuff + plastic spoon= clean car

you could pour gas on it and it will peal right off.
my friend got a parking ticket and they put it right in front of him on the windsheild. so his dad told him to pour gas on it and it rubbed right off :)
but thats just because they are cheap and didnt want to get goo-gone. and now his car smells like shit.

there was some dude in chicago, he had gum on his finger, so he thought he'd be slick and stick his hand in his gas tank to get some gas to rub off the gum.
well his hand got stuck and he was thee for 5 hours while a fire dept. hadta cut his hand out

best safest way to do it, is to tape a plastic bag below the sticker and on the sides then pull it back a little so you can spray down over the sticker and spray the hell out of it w/ some windex. Then come back with a heat gun if you don't have one and you live anywhere that is half as hot as it is here in texas then just let it sit in direct sunlight for about an hour, oh and tape the top shut too after you spray that keeps the windex trapped in there and lets the amonia in it do it's stuff. After this hour has gone by or if you have a heat gun just like 5 or 10 min then take off the bag get your fingernail or a nylon scraper (make sure it is in good shape) use the heat gun if you still have it and the sticker will scrape right off. I have been known to take 15 year old pin strip off a truck once with a razor blade, you can do this if you are someone who is very skilled with a razor blade. This truck had about 30 rows of pinstripe on it that is why I chose this technique plus the pinstripe was old and chipping off. But incase you need this tip you can float a razor blade between the paint and the glue just bairly above the glue then a little gue gone or some gasoline will take it the rest of the way off just make sure to give it a good polish and wax job when your done and wala good as new unless it's faded pretty bad all around the sticker.
