Removing vinyl lettering
 
So on the front of my car the previous owner put his website url...which is no longer up.

I want to get this off asap. How would I do it safely without damaging the plastic grill?

I'm not worried about the surface being faded because it's going to get repainted anyhow, but I certainly don't want to ruin the plastic in the process either.

you can either use heat to loosen the adhesive or an eraser wheel for your drill

Thank you! I'll take my hair dryer to tomorrow and see how that does.

Ive seen recon guys strip off dealership stickers with a commercial pressure washer. Just a thought.

the only problem with that is if it will rip off stickers it deff could rip off some paint

i did this with a 2600psi power washer with the second weakest tip
