Morning everyone

We are downsizing from MH to Autosleeper Van and have just two transfers we'd like to remove before P/EX. What is the best way to do this without affecting the bodywork.
We will now be Ruby3 on tour! They say your third van is when you get it right, hope so as this is def not a cheap hobby! (Though I do love it) 😊
Thanks funsters
 
Hairdryer & patience, then try solvents from meths up to acetone until you find one that removes the residue without damaging the panel. And it helps to have strong fingernails, as you don't want to scrape with anything more aggressive...

If you have a lot to do, an Induction heat pad or steam pad if you can find one to hire or borrow.

It's only two small lines so I'll give the hairdryer a go first I think, thanks anyway

I just removed a wrap from the rear of mine, gentle heat form the Mrs hairdryer and gently pulling and they came off no problem. Cleaned the glue residue off with panel wipes from local body shop 👍

Panel wipes or Isopropanol, warm the panel not the vinyl if possible then the glue comes away with the decal. As a retired sign maker removed loads using this method.
