How to safely remove vinyl stickers
At Fire Vinyl, We use the highest quality materials to make sure your decals stay put in even in the harshest conditions. Removing these decals is usually easy enough, but you certainly can cans damage such as paint peeling if you are not careful. Here is a quick guide to help you:
-
Gather Your Supplies: Before you begin, gather a few essential tools:
- Hairdryer or heat gun
- Plastic razor blade or credit card
- Adhesive remover or rubbing alcohol
- Microfiber cloth
-
Apply Heat: Start by heating the vinyl decal with a hairdryer or heat gun on low heat. This softens the adhesive, making it easier to peel off.
-
Peel Gently: Once the decal is warm to the touch, use a plastic razor blade or credit card to gently lift the edge of the decal. Peel it off slowly, applying more heat as needed.
-
Remove Residue: If any adhesive residue remains, apply a small amount of adhesive remover like Goo Gone or rubbing alcohol to a microfiber cloth and gently rub the area until the residue disappears.
-
Clean Surface: After removing the decal and adhesive residue, wipe the surface clean with a damp cloth to remove any remaining residue or cleaning solution.
-
Optional: Polish Surface: For a flawless finish, consider polishing the surface with a vinyl-safe polish or wax to restore shine and protect against future damage.
