Dealer Fit Labels

I've got some Dealer Fit Labels on the inside of my windows... Any hints and tips for removing them?

U've probably already tried this but some really hot water and a bit of elbow grease should soon get them off!

Not tried yet!

Not tried anything yet - I suspected it'd be elbow grease and water, but wanted to see if there were some cunning ideas out there...

I always find that a bit of anti-perspirant deodorant and a cloth does the trick!

the MINI has gone...

To get rid of stick residue, nail varnish remover and cotton wool

Mini's have feelings too!

Doesn't using a hairdryer help too?

Ordered my "S" August '01. Arrived July '02. EB with white roof, wheels and stripes, Chili pack, DSC and climate control. Hate those 17" runflats though.

Relatively easy...

Labels peeled off without too much effort.

And then the sticky marks washed off with soap and water.

Sticky

Mine peeled off without leaving a trace - mind you I did it the day I got my car. So they had only just been stuck on.

I don't like advertising for any dealer.

Moo!

Show me the mini!

Exclamation

I removed mine a few weeks after getting the car - no problems whatsoever...

Try it on a corner - if it leaves glue marks, then use a hairdryer or what the others advised.
