Modern Vespa

Now im looking to grt some side panel stickers for my scooter change it up abit im justworried will they ruin my paintwork or peel off and make my scooter look taccy and cheap any experiences?

My friend has some on her side panels to cover up a dent. She's replaced them and they didn't hurt the paint. Get a good quality one and you'll do fine. Here's a pic of hers. She has one on the other side also.

If you look on Facebook..... search for 'GTS Design' a guy called Paul, he'll sort you out - top bloke for all sorts of other stuff too.....

Also check out my avatar - my tool box door is all stickers - gently heat with a hairdryer to remove and a wipe with meths if there is any sticky residue left (oh er matron !!)

when (if) you want to remove them, just warm them up with a hair dryer and they should peel off in one piece without leaving any residue (so long as they are vinyl type)

Thanks guya its brand new so was a little worried love the help on this forum.

Stickers themselves shouldn't damage the paint. But over a very long time the paint finish of areas that are exposed to daylight tends to age differently to areas protected under a sticker... It takes ages though, and varies a lot over different colour finishes.

Most people put stickers on the side after they've damaged the sides in a slide.

Yeh i just saw one i really wantes on it and thought i might get it straight on there

Also you can get sticker/sticker adhesive remover from Halfords... I recently bought a camper van with the ugliest stickers and it got those off no problem.

About £3.00 a can i think

Yes, Ms. Eldritch was suffering an infestation of daisies when I liberated her. i used a blow dryer to get them off. just beat and beat it with a blow dryer, really whaled on it, slinging it around by the cord. a few bashes and the stickers let go.
Or maybe I blew on them. it worked.

I think it helps to pull them off at a 30 degree angle.

I find using a hairdryer over the stickers currently on the panels to soften up the adhesive is a great help in removing stickers easy..and then apply eucalyptus oil to remove any left over residue adhesive/glue still stuck to the panel makes it all very easy to do.

For taking them off.........just wait till the height of summer and enjoy a adult beverage of your choice (of course in the shade) while the sun heats it up for you. Most likely will heat it up as much as a hair dryer........at least here it does/would.
