finally retired from my night job [popalock] and now need to remove the graphics. i have a little bottle of Goo-gone. but it looks like it would take many bottles of the stuff to get it all.. what works and isn't too pricey and wont hurt the paint?

why not heat gun it and peel?

Heat gun is good, remove any remaining glue with WD-40, it works better than anything I've used...

the vinyl comes off easy. the glue stays on the car. will try a hair dryer on high and see if that makes the glue stick to the vinyl. the heat gun i could borrow from work probably gets hot enuff to damage the paint.
