Just recently trade my 93 Virago for a 2005 FZ6. Previous owner was a little rough on her but I'm doing my best to get her back to normal.
The previous owner put on these tribal stickers that I'm sure have been on the bike for forever. I really wanted them removed.
I live in Arizona so the hard sun has baked them on the bike for years I'm assuming.
Has anyone dealt with this before or have suggestions on getting them off without taking up some paint, which I already have done, and removing most of the shadow or leftovers from the sticker?
I've tried Goo Gone, heating with a heat gun and hair blow dryer, and soaking them in water/soap over night. Right now I've been furiously rubbing in some Meguiar's Ultimate Compound into the spots hopping to eventually wear down the sticker to the paint. Has anyone had any success with any of these methods?
I got one off the windscreen and am now working on the one on the front tire fender, leaving the most visible spots till I find the best way to get them off.
Here's what I have left:
Thanks for the help!
