Goo Gone and a hot day. And sense you'll be strapped for a hot day, a hair dryer will work good on that extra residue left over.

3M adheisive remover. comes in a big red spray can. just spray it on, let it sit a minute or so, then wipe off. works better than anything else ive ever tried

I use an eraser (sp) wheel, i used it to get the stock pinstipe stickers off my ranger, as well as the residue from the stock $65 "ranger" emblem on the fender. works great, use with caution, it can burn the paint if your not careful.

what emblems are removeable? Im an anti emblem nut and no car ive owned kept them. But i have also done research to make sure there are no pins or holes under them. also my truck is an 02 so how much will the paint have faded? I do have the 4x4 ones on the back which i hate the most. Is the ford on the rear removeable? And do the front fender Ranger ones have holes underneath? of course i will not take them off if the paint is faded much that buffing cant fix
