I haven't seen a post on this, maybe someone can help. Can these visor stickers/printed air bag warnings be removed? Any suggestions? I know the picture is bad.:smile:

Acetone. And it'll take forever. I only got a little bit off of my passenger side one and gave up.

Hate those warning stickers though!

From a PM convo I had with someone about the topic:

The first one I used the 4 to 1 water/acetone mixture, but had to let it sit for several minutes in order for it to bubble up off the surface. The second one I used straight acetone. Let it sit for a minute and wiped it off. You will still need to put some elbow grease behind it to get it off though. Leaving it on too long will eventually make the plastic tear as you wipe it so not a good idea to walk away from it but it's a lot quicker than the 4 to 1 mix. There will still be residual spots left over possibly. After you have wiped off the first attempt and cleaned it with water very well, just hand rub the leftovers with a cloth and acetone. The stickers they used were vinyl so it makes it very hard for use to remove them these days. Good luck and let me know how it works out for you. Be careful with the acetone too =)

Well then, I kinda guessed something like that of removing them. What would it do. I appreciate the replies. Thanks, it was a thought of some kind of mod.
