Smooths the body out and give a cleaner look IMO :top:
x2 on the clean look.



i had the dealer take all there logos and dealer name stuff off before i left the lot the day i purchased the truck. told the salesman unless you pay me or knock the price down, i'm not going to advertise the dealerships name. lol. :biggrin: they didn't like that to much.

it wouldn't be so bad if dealerships would put them on straight. i can't stand seeing the emblems just slapped on there crooked.

Bumping an old tread I know, but I want to remove some vinyl stickers that I have grown tired of.
My plan is to remove all stickers on windows and side of bed and be completely debadged/murdered out.
Windows seem pretty straight forward as far as using a razor blade and some good window/adhesive remover.
Anyone have some tricks to remove the vinyl stickers I have on the side of the bed without damaging the paint? I tried to peel them off but they are on there good and seems like I'd tare the sticker and have bits and pieces left.
Thanks fellas

Wd-40 is a solvent and won't hurt your paint

Vinyl if its old is going to be tough

I had an s10 that had huge decals the whole way down the sides. I used goo gone in a little spray bottle, let it soak for a while, then they came off pretty easy. A heat gun helps too, but you have to be careful to not burn the paint.

I appreciate the replies fellas. Ill give them both a shot. I thought of a heat gun but was worried I'd bake the sticker into the paint.
Wd and goo gone it is.

i removed my decals off the tailgate a while back and tried goo gone and even after about 5 times it still didn't get all the glue off. i heard 3M all purpose adhesive remover works really well

Yeah, I'm already debadged. I used dental floss for that. I was curious of methods of removing the vinyl trd logo on the side of the bed. I'm over the zombie hunter edition. Got lots of comments about it, want a cleaner look.
