Stickers

[JamesL]

My car is off on a regularity rally next month
They want to stick vinyl stickers on the door. Is there anything I should be putting on the doors before they stick so that I can get the stickers off afterwards with no risk of damage?

Thanks

James,
if these are magnetic stickers it won't work. But if this is to be glued it depends very much on the paint quality. I saw my friend's car that had some nasty marks after he removed the stickers after a rallye. It looked like the veneer or clear paint entered into some chemical reaction.

Very reassuring!

Oh, I don't think it's the sort of serious stuff Peter does...

Mix a spray bottle with water and one teaspoon of washing up liquid. Apply to door before sticking sticker. Then you can still move it around a little. Remove bubbles with a credit card or similar plastic object at an oblique angle.

To remove... Wet the edges and the heat slightly with a hair dryer.... Carefully. Shouldn't be a problem.
