Removing decals

Recommended Posts

I've just bought a model from ebay where the decals are in a bit of a state so am looking to remove them. Apart from picking them off does anyone have any tips on easy ways to remove them, its a standard Tamiya Wild Dagger shell by the way.

use a hair dryer to warm them up and they peel right off. WD 40 will remove excess adhesive residue, if any is left...

Yeah warm them up using a hairdryer just so it oftens the glue, also white spirit takes off the sticky marks with ease and is very cheap. DO NOT use a heat gun, as it will melt the body.

Thanks
