Greetings:

My 1983 C25 has several registration stickers plastered along both bow sides. What's the best way to remove them?

I just removed 10 years worth from Mental Floss. I used a plastic scraper to remove the stickers then used "Goof Off" to remove the adhesive that was left.

I believe I used a hair dryer for the old stickers and old striping along the sides of "Brandy"

WD40 also works good for cutting old adhesive if you don't have any of that goobgone stuff.

I used a flat bladed screwdriver and 3M adhesive remover. I not only took off the stickers, I removed the registration letters as well. They were faded white.
