EDGE Stickers

What should I use to remove the orange EDGE stickers on the sides of my bed on my truck? Heat gun/Hair dryer and a credit card?

be careful with a credit card if you use one. Might scratch.

You can buy plastic scrappers. They work the best and be carefull with the heat gun. If your not used to using one I would suggest using the hair dryer. They get plenty hot enough to get stickers off easier. And once your done and all the glue is off get some wax on there.

I was able to get it off with my fingernail on day one of owning it. i would imagine the older it is the harder it would be.

i just used a heat gun and it came right off. no need for good gone or anything of the such. then i replaced them with black ones right after that. used a little bit of water and a rag but other than that no goo on the truck was left.

WD-40 works well removing adhesive, I used it when I removed my pinstripe.
