Try this with lighter fluid too, but definitely test it first as mentioned above, because some plastics respond poorly to lighter fluid. Also (I think this goes without saying) if you decide to use lighter fluid, I wouldn't recommend the hair dryer, but lighter fluid on its own does a hell of a job on adhesive removal and usually doesn't destroy the paint.

Adam.. Not sure who your question is directed to.. but the topic is "how to remove stickers & decals" But if your replay was meant for me.. there aren't any stickers of decals on the van.. Yet. This is what we're lining up. Carbon Fiber wrap, decals on the body, but most will be on the rear window. As I said, once those decals have been placed, there's no turning back. The van is going to get ceramic coated as a means of protection and a show quality shine which will never fade, can't be torched etc.
Yes I know sounds like allot for a little miniCargo van which we only paid 18K for. We're looking at this for the long haul. So if your friend has decals and it's been ceramic coated.. about the best you can do is frame off acid dip or purchase new/used body parts for where the decals are. Just depends how technical and through you really want to be with the decal removal.

Thanks for the detailed reply. I'm going to let my friend know for his car and I have also told him about the forum. Thanks!

Simple thing is you can remove these stickers from anywhere with apply some heat to them, when these stickers get hot so you can easily remove them from the surface.
