    Bumper stickers are a craft for right now.

    How do you get bumper stickers off? Is it possible? This is possibly a major problem. I could use any knowledge anyone has to give.

    Well, I bought some stuff specially made to take them off, but using some oil based product and letting it sit and soak will help to loosen the glue. What are you taking off? (Man, I love that edit feature)

    Sadly I'm taking off my most beloved bumper stickers because I'm selling my car.
    - Give Peace a Chance
    - Imagine
    - Support our Troops Bring 'em home alive

    Oh well. Thanks for telling me.

    WD40...the stuff removes anything sticky and gooey. Spray it on, let it soak in for a while and use a credit card or someting similar (that you dont care about getting greasy) to scrape the stuff off with. When youre done make sure to clean up the area with soap and water....good luck.


    WD40 also works on scuff marks on tile, crayon on semi-gloss paint finishes, those crappy price stickers that never seem to come off...tons of stuff.

    thumbs up on the WD-40 :)

    Goof Off also works well, and sometimes heat, like a hair dryer can be effective

    if it's on glass, a razor blade does fine

    How about Goo Gone. I used that to get stickers off my guitar. I was silly to put them on in the first place. But, alas, i was just a stupid teen *waxes reminiscant*

    It's a personal choice, maybe us older people just don't feel all that older. I have two, one on my Saturn - "Are you Kind?" (Love that one alot) and two, I just bought an old cadillac and put on a dancing bears sticker that looks like an old album record.

    Goo Gone should work well. Worse comes to worst, try paint thinner (NOT lacquer thinner). Don't rub it in, especially if your bumper is painted & not metal.
    Good luck!

    peace
