How to Remove Sticker Residue From a Car

    Blow Dryer

    • 1). Hold a blow dryer 2 to 3 inches from the sticker adhesive. Blow hot air on the adhesive for one minute.

    • 2). Scrape the adhesive with a damp nylon brush. Continue blowing heat onto the glue as you scrape. Use medium pressure as you scrape the adhesive.

    • 3). Wipe the loosened adhesive from the car with a damp sponge. Dry the area with a soft cloth. If adhesive remains, continue heating with the blow dryer and scraping, removing all the glue from the car.

    • 4). Fill a bucket halfway with warm water and 1/2 tsp. of liquid dish soap. Wash the affected area of the car with the soapy water and a sponge.

    • 5). Rinse the area with cool water and dry with a soft cloth.

    Mineral Spirits

    • 1). Pour 3 tbsp. of mineral spirits on a soft cloth.

    • 2). Saturate the sticker adhesive with the mineral spirits. Allow the lubricant to soften the glue for 15 minutes.

    • 3). Rub the glue vigorously with a damp cloth, dislodging it from the car's surface.

    • 4). Wipe the area with a clean, damp cloth. Wash the area with soapy water and rinse with cool water. Dry the car with a soft cloth.
