How can I remove dealer decals

The best is to tell them NO Decals, stickies or other advertisements are to be put on the car BEFORE you buy it. Thats what I do every time. It works.

PS - sometimes if you do it the first day, stick ons can be removed easily with finger nails without scratching the paint.

That is what I did, the car sat for one day actually, but it was the start of summer for Texas so I got home and they peeled right off. Went back the next day while cleaning it and made sure everything was gone.

Use some fishing line and saw back n forth behind the emblem kinda like flossin your teeth. Works every time and no scratches.

Worst case you'll need a little adhesive remover to clean up what's left.

Oops...

Just looked at your pic. My technique only work on the big hideous plastic emblems some dealers stick on.

Your's just looks like vinyl letters. Peel off with your finger nail and just clean up any residue after.
