Graphics & Glue

[kinnaird2929]

Just taken the graphics off my boat and am left with the glue, what is the best way of removing the glue without damaging the Gelcoat? <br /><br />Can someone recommend a good graphics company that will also put the graphics on the boat?

Since no two suggestions are alike so far, I'll toss in for Goo-Gon. Cleans 'sticky' off of anything, so far. <br /><br />Salty - if you have experience with it, a heatgun can be used to remove the decals/stripes. Use just enough heat to loosen the glue.

WD-40 works like a charm...and one of the few things it's good for.<br />HORRID lubricant, water displacer, etc.<br />Deodorized kerosene in a spray can.<br />Also good at removing soot stains from white transoms.
