LynchMob Posted January 20, 2006 Share Posted January 20, 2006 I want to remove the 'corolla' and 'DX' from my rear.... anyone got a good tip on how to safely do it? I heard that floss works... but have no clue how to go about doing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevelaw Posted January 20, 2006 Share Posted January 20, 2006 Got a long extension cord? I removed them from my Corolla by heating them up with a hair dryer. It loosens the adhesive's grip from the painted surface, When they were hot enough, I could pull up under them and get them off.

Steve Posted January 22, 2006 Share Posted January 22, 2006 never said it would scratch the paint.. just covering my backside. Floss is just a minty approach fishing line works very well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
