mines been caked on for 10 fucking years and isnt that easy black vinyl
shit…..
good video, it takes a lot of patience in doing this. Just make sure you
always have semi permanent stickers. I also wonder how long this removal
took place
i do this on cop cars all the time, i wish it was this easy, let them sit
outside for a few years and start cracking and drying out, only way is with
a ‘decal stripper'(a rubber wheel that spins and takes it off) and it
sucks! Right now i have 8 hours on a car thats not even a full wrap, i will
probably end up with 2-3 more on it tomorrow. But i dont have any special
spray to remove adheasive residue all with brake cleaner and rag or with
the tool!
I have just removed today a Yellow vinyl wrap from a 2007 Ford Focus. It
had been on the car from new. After stripping, the paint was exactly as it
came out of the factory, perfect. I did NOT use a heat gun as the very hot
dry heat could easily blister the paint. I used a steamer for removing
wallpaper. The wet heat cannot damage the paintwork yet softends the vinyl
just right. If you slowly pull the vinyl at the same time moving the flat
plate of the steamer you can get very large areas off.
what exactly of wrap is this, like, 3M 1080?
goo gone good to remove glue around edges that and elbow greese
Does anyone know if the original paint suffers any damage removing a vinyl
wrap? Should I wrap a car and then get tired of the new color,could I come
back to the original paint just removing the vinyl? Thanks.

dont rip it pull slow use heat easy pull edges first dont rip it full
sheets slow roll excess into itself to give you a good pulling point agin
dont rip it it will pull off better if you have a goold hold heat the metal
wait pull slow roll heat pull roll into itseff sorry slow and hard but
great results this guy sucks at it heat pull heat pull big sheets ripping
to much work
Would you happen to remember how long this wrap had been on the van?
That’s 8 mins of my life I will never get back
Love the elevator music. I have to do this tomorrow. Do you think my boss
will provide the tunes?
HOW LONG WAS THE WRAP ON BEFORE U REMOVED IT?
depends on age and sun exposure…….most come apart in small pieces
making for a slow and painfull process
yeah but you left glue on the car man!
The trick is don’t rush and always pull slightly upwards so if the vinyl
does rip it will leave an edge sticking upwards that you can grip. Never
use a knife or metal to lift the edges up, you WILL mark the paint. The
problem is how to remove the residue glue thats left in places. Don’t use a
chemical that will dull or damage the paint. I used a adhesive cleaner by
3M (08984) but it was crap did not make an impression. I am trying
something else, will keep you posted as soon as something works.
Maybe you should use more than one hand BARN!
