How To Remove And Preserve Stickers From Your Motorcycle

Read Time:59 Second

The bikes like Ducati Scrambler still come with a few warning labels that disrupt the clean lines of that bright red trellis frame. Removing them is pretty easy, but preserving them is the real trick.

Three out of four “tools” you need are items you probably already have kicking around the house:

  • hairdryer
  • rag
  • wd40

You can also use a heat gun if you happen to have one, but be careful. It could get too hot and melt plastics in the area you’re working, especially if the stickers you’re removing are actually on plastic.

Using the hairdryer, heat up one corner of the sticker you want to remove.

After a few minutes, you should be able to carefully start to peel the corner up with your finger. Move the hairdryer along the sticker, slowly heating and peeling as you go.

Patience is the key here so you do not rip the sticker.

Eventually, it will come off completely, intact, and undamaged. Spray some WD40 on a rag, then wipe down the area where the sticker used to be.

This will remove any remaining adhesive from the bike.
