How to safely remove a car dealer badge

Although dealer decals are an effective way for dealers to advertise, they are not the ideal accessory to your vehicle. It's also difficult to get rid of. Here are some ways to make your car look better by removing the ugly dealer decal.

Prep work

Clean the area around your sticker before you take it off. You can keep dirt and dust from damaging your paint by cleaning the area around the adhesive. It is easy enough to clean the sticker with warm soapy water.

How to Remove the Decal

It is important to remove a decal correctly from your car. The glue will be softened by heat and the decal will be easier to remove. Depending on the difficulty of your sticker to be removed, you might need to wait for a sunny, warm day. If the sticker is still difficult to remove even after a sunny day, you can heat it with a hair dryer and loosen the adhesive.

Once the glue has dissolved, you can begin to remove the sticker. This will give you the best results. Take your time. If the sticker is too difficult to peel with your fingers, you can use something soft like floss, a credit card or a spatula. If the decal is laser cut, you may need to spend some time removing small pieces.

You can spray adhesive remover on decals that are particularly resistant and won't come off with heat or tools. This allows adhesive remover to reach underneath the sticker and loosens the glue.

Cleanup

The removal of the dealership sticker from your car is only one part. Afterward, you need to clean everything up. You can get scratches in your paint if you leave adhesive behind. This can be prevented by using an adhesive remover. If you don't have the right product, there are many products available that will remove any adhesive leftover from these stickers. You'll still get the best results by using an old-and-true adhesive removal product.

It is not easy to remove dealer decals, but it is possible. You can remove your decal in no time if you follow these steps.
