Car Park Sticker

[mikeydredlox]

I cant for the life of me get the thing off, its stuck fast

Any suggestions?

[Migraine]

Literally a new windscreen, that and don't actually stick it next time

[Meatball]

If there are any businesses near you that do vehicle graphics/sign writing then pop in and ask nicely

They will have stuff that will get it off no problems at all

Nail varnish remover.

White Spirit does a good job

[eoJ]

Acetone, white spirit, isopropyl alcohol (but not all at once) - a must for any household.

[baxterboy]

I only stick it to the screen with the tiniest of edges.

[verrymerry]

Leave it on, until it fades to an unglorified mess like all of mine!

I left the glue on from last year.

Then stuck this years on top of last years and therefore only had to remove one lot of glue every other year. Efficient or what!!!

[Pinhead]

Got 2010, 2013 and 2014 still in place. Would have had 2011 but worked Oxfam that year and they don't do parking stickers. Had them all from 2003 onwards on the windscreen before 2010 - but windscreen cracked that year and had to be replaced. If you want to keep them try avoiding the wiper zone as much as possible otherwise the MOT sometimes fails unless they are removed from this 'vision' area.

I stick it to a polypocket and cut round it before I go, then stick it the windscreen with Sellotape.

Then afterwards, I stick them to a different window in the car.

Halfords do a spray called Sticky Stuff Remover which melts them off in a matter of minutes.

In subsequent years, stick to transparent plastic (or cling film) and masking tape to the screen.

[sedra]

Fairy liquid and hot water and scrape!

[Abster]

I've still got 2011 on my windscreen, would have 2008 to alas sold the car...

[Beaky99]

Liberal spraying with water and then a scouring paid worked for mine... After about 20 minutes anyway!

I tried to not stick it on too thoroughly because it was a hire car, but obviously failed!

[rischbrit]

Or place cling film round it before small amount of Sellotape in each corner. Mine is still on though! Will be as long as poss. Car had MOT the other week and passed fine as sticker behind interior mirror so not blocking view!

[deardo]

warm soapy water always works for me

[Peroni]

hand sanitizer also works....

next year, make sure the windscreen is as clean as possible if you decide to stick it on... i did that this year (only because i had to wash it to try and get last years v fest sticker off) and this year it pealed right off no issues...

[Ruwise]

Nail varnish remover is what I always use.

[pie_and_a_pint]

Yep, nail varnish remover. Not the acetone free stuff though - that's good for healthy nails but rubbish as a sticky stuff remover.

What's wrong with a window scraper?

[Slugworth]

I laminated mine at work and stuck it on with tape. Last year made the mistake of sticking on windscreen. Never again.

[Cheesey]

When I eventually come to removing mine I use a plastic scraper, applying olive oil or, even better, WD40, with a bit of kitchen roll. Then I use some soapy water or windscreen wipes to clean up the resulting mess. Still takes a few minutes though.

I went in a company car so we laminated the sticker and used masking tape to stick it to the windscreen , it was only when typing this I realised I could of just taped the sticker to the windscreen but I went a bit laminator mad this yr.
