Default 4X4 Sticker removal

I'm sure that some of you have removed the 4x4 sticker. I just have a wuestion. First off did you just peel it off and if you did how did you get the sticky stuff off the paint? How long did it take you to do this?

I've removed all my stickers and emblems. It's easy... use a hairdryer or heat gun to warm it up, then just start peeling away. Be careful if using a heat gun... those things can get pretty damn hot and harm the paint. As far as the sticky stuff, just soak a rag with some paint thinner/gas/WD40 whatever and it comes off real easy. Just be sure to apply some wax to that area when you are done. You'll probably notice where the stickers were when your truck gets a little dusty... but that will fade with time.

Yeah, do what 99FireTA suggested. And, it shouldnt take you more than 10 minutes to do the whole entire thing. Its fairly simple and very easy.

And yeah, make sure you wax that area afterwards, or go ahead and clean n wax the entire truck afterwards. Because that area hasnt seen wax or any type or protectant in god knows how long, so its a good idea to give it a shot of somethin.
