The title will be "Hey Yall, Watch This!" Oh, by the way, the chain is on as of two hours ago.

BTW, what year is it? Not being in England for a while, I can't work out the year on the new style number plates.

I got mine off, using a tin of Zippo lighter fuel to get the sticky off. It didn't harm the paintwork. :2tup:

Rubbing alcohol will also work. Soak a piece of cloth and apply it to the sticker to soften it. The sticker will eventually peel off and you can clean up glue residue with more alcohol.

WD-40 works well too. and maybe a touch of heat gun....but just a touch. A hair dryer would be a safer bet.
