    Want to take off a window decal, and the dealership decal on the trunk.
    Also want to get rid of those "airbag" and "child security lock" stickers on the sides.
    What should I use to take these off?

    Use a razor blade on the windows to get the stickser off. The get some paint thinner on a rag to wipe to glue and whats left off.

    For the body, use a credit car (or some other plastic card) and then use somebrake parts cleaner to remove any and all left over adhesize. Then wipe it down REALLY good and wax wherever the brake cleaner touched!Or wash your can and do the usual routine.

    You can also use Goo Gone, that citrus smelling stuff, it works wonders getting the sticky residue off your car or plastics without leaving any marks. As for remove decals and stickers from your paint. I would personally use a hair dryer to heat up the sticker to get the glue behind it a little loosened up then pick away at it. I would try to avoid any sharp or pointy objects to accomplish this. Given the fact they nick the paint when trying to remove them.

    I personally have found the hair dryer and dental floss method works quite well and does not leave any marks behind. But this method I have only used on removing the Grand Prix badges and the 3800 badges. I never tried on an actual viynal* sticker though. Though the hair dryer as mentioned above would help in removing those stickers and a little finger picking should do the trick there after. Followed up by the Goo Gone stuff to clean up the sticky aftermath.
