x2.

I also used on/off (Fiberglass boat cleaner, so powerful it smokes when applied). But you have to be very careful with it.

The adheasive remover and a good hairdryer will do the trick too. I used a high speed wheel and some real good wax which also helped alot! Check out my garage, I was a little skeptical at first because my rig is black and its the easiest color to F up, but it came out great. I took off all my molding.

good luck

that is exactily what the 3m poduct is made for. then wax the parts you removed as they will be "naked"

a little heat from a hair dryer or a heat gun on lowest setting , do not hold in same spot for very long... 3m adhesive remover , wd40 , rubbing alcohol , goo gone , numerous things can be used... i stripped all decals off mine and i used microfiber towels and then stripped wax and washed the truck and put new wax down... good luck time consuming i know but the results were well worth it..

Also agree on the 3M. Personally though I would'nt use the wd40 or the wax. Alot of people will probably argue but paint likes to breath and wax suffocates it to the point it cracks. If its already been waxed than you are stuck doing it..... repeadatly. I use a wax free polish.

i used an eraser wheel to get most of the tape off. then i used goo gone to get the small left overs off.

if you are pulling badges use a piece of string slide it up and down comes right off....

If you can find an 3M eraser wheel at an auto parts stor, deff. use it, saves lots of elbow grease!

GOOF OFF. This stuff works great & you dont need to worry about damaging something. Dental floss works good to remove the badges.
