.. badly fitted reversing camera - who knew you have to seal holes in bodywork?
I've always done it this way. Works every time.I've de-badged pretty much every vehicle I've owned and I never use floss, wire, hacksaw blades etc.
My method is warm up and just twist each letter with your fingers. Simple
Any double sided tape left should roll up on your dry thumb.
I would like to remove the transporter lettering on the rear door.
I know it’s on with 3M tape which is stickier than sticky the stick insect, so what would be a good way to go about it so I dont cause paint issues?
I have some IPA (not the beer) but read this is not good for the paint.
Any suggestions???
Thanks

a little bit of fishing line will help 'cheese wire' the adhesive if it's being stubborn too
I've got to say that I always use Isoprop for a final wipe over before doing any touch ups on car paintwork and it's never been an issue. Although not on my T6, I've also used some stuff called 'Stick Stuff Remover' on paintwork to remove leftovers from a sticker that some moron put on my year old Audi SQ5 a couple of years ago - 2 XMykal Sticky Stuff Remover 250ml: Amazon.co.uk: Kitchen & Home. It didn't do any harm on that occasion but I would definitely test it on a hidden area first. That said, it does seem to leave a slightly greasy residue behind it which, again, was cleaned off with a quick wipe over with Isoprop. Good luck.
They come off easy... Not sure borrowing the wife's hair dryer will be though
