Heat gun. Apply Small amount of heat they will peel off nice and easy. Steal your Mum's/Wife's or girlfriend's hairdryer if you dont have a heatgun.
Clean up any residue with Eucalyptus Oil and then polish the plastics. With a proper plastic cleaner/polish.
Its the only sure fire way to make sure it is 100% clean and ready to accept new stickers with the best chance of them sticking on and staying there. |

I agree 100% with Fozzy, that's how I did mine, and the sticker kit is staying put after 2yrs of abuse (mud and sand) and, of course, copping the Gerni when I get home.

What about applying sticker kits? I've read on the Internet that soapy water and a plastic squeegee are the go, or heat gun again? What gives the nicest finish? Never put a sticker kit on so hoping it can't be that hard...  |

So now that E-Sticky seem to have dropped off the face of the earth, who would you recommend for sticker kits? Is there anyone in Australia who is reliable and well priced?
