Ever have to remove a decorative decal from a tractor cab? These must
be removed without paint damage to permit lettering and other
information to be seen. Here are two methods used in the past:
Soften up and blow off one decal at a time with a steam cleaner. The
plastic will come of, leave an outline of the adhesive still on the
paint. Moisten the adhesive with a solvent applied with a cloth.
After five minutes small blisters will appear, then use the steam
cleaner again to remove loosened adhesive. When all the decals and
adhesive are gone, rub out and polish the area to a uniform finish.
Heat one decal at a time with a heat gun. When adhesive under the
decal softens, scrape the plastic decal off in on direction using a
plastic scraper. Then soften the adhesive as describe above and rub
out area.
