I'm contemplating the removal of the Clubsport decals from the side of my car as they are not original to the car and on a speed yellow car with colour coded wheels (which I am also going to change) are a bit OTT. What would be the best way of doing this? I'm thinking of borrowing the wife's hairdrier to soften them up and then some clay and Zymol after peeling them off. Any other solutions to this one?

Last time I did this with a kettle of hot but not boiling water. Takes the wax off too though. Other problem is that if they've been on a while the paint underneath may be a different colour to the rest of the car! Lots of cutting & waxing may restore it but be warned!

i agree this may be the best route

The one I found for removing those anoying stickers from brand new motor bike tanks was Holts tar remover, recommended by a M/C dealer for some reason this product was mean on stickers without affecting the paintwork, used it on many bike tanks but never on a car, might be worth a try?

Thanks for the suggestions everyone. Will check some of these ideas out. Looking at the book of money spent, the stickers went on in March last year so hopefully should not have etched their way into the paint too far!

Hairdryer will do the best job.

Clay bar to remove any gum

Then paint cleaner to help with any ageing effects, then polish.
