[lechatnoir]

To remove this kind of stickers: Aplly liberal dose of DOOM. Wait a few minutes, wipe top/paper section of sticker off with a soft cloth.

Spray some more DOOM on glue, wait a few minutes.

Wipe glue residue off with said soft cloth.

Rinse and repeat if necessary, until frame is free of any glue residue.

Back in my younger days I used to do merchandising for Vodacom, Doom was standard issue in the kits for removing sticker residue and it really works!

[Patchelicious]

Jip, they seem to last forever.

 

 

Sometimes longer than the frame.

 

 

Like the Pilot joke ... How do you know if an oke is a Pilot ... he tells you ! 

 

Imagine the dilemma that an Epic finisher must face when they buy a new bike..... "To try and transfer the sticker or not try to transfer the sticker, that is the question."

Only on Congregants.

Fixed. Boeing pilots are better guys. They don't need to advertise.

Just completed the ASG / Liberty Winelands event at which self-adhesive PVC stage profiles were issued.

 

The stickers proved so tough, and yes sticky, that portion of my Scotts carbon fibre top-coat peeled off the frame along with the sticker when I removed it. (Spark Carbon Pro 2012)

 

Evidently the stickers arefar more 'aggressive' than any other stage race decal I have used which have generally been low-tack and easy to remove.

 

Damn I'm annoyed.

Has anyone else had similar experience?

Have you thought of making a claim against ASG ?

Decals come in various strengths of adhesive.

Its a choice that the buyer makes.

Some churches also recommend DOOM to remove SIN...........

Hahaha I recon this has put a few finishers off from buying a new bike!

 

EDIT: Stopped then from selling the old bike once they have bought the new one....

After you have removed the sticker, apply some peanut butter and leave on for about 5 hours. Take a wet cloth and wipe off, this has worked for me in the past. 

How on earth did you find that out?

 

What did you try previously? Chutney, mayonaise, olive oil, fig jam??

So if Doom will remove a sticky substance, perhaps someone should go spray the prez...

Animal shelters use peanut butter to remove tar on affected animals

[CAAD4]

Because other animals will then lick them clean for free?
