Removing square chemical warning sticker?
Hi everyone,
I tried searching, but couldn't find an answer, so I figured I'd ask. How did you all remove that white square chemical warning sticker stuck on the driver's side window? Didn't want to try it yet in case I mess it up, but how did you all remove it? Can I just peel it off without leaving any residue behind or is there a trick to do it? |

Are you seriously asking how to remove a sticker from a window? If you are serious: Just peel it off. Then use a rag and rubbing alcohol to remove the glue, if any is left behind.

“Asking” for a friend? Kinda like that burning sensation?
If it is on a window, Razor blade then some type of solvent if needed. |

I think it is a CA thing. Prop 65 which says that any chemical known to cause health issues in consumer products must be labeled and displayed with a clearly visible posting. I'll take a picture tonight and post it.

Keep it flat and level and all is good. My guess is it is just a temp sticker anyway so wait for a nice warm day and just peel it off. If it leaves a bit of gummy residue behind use the sticky part of the sticker to pull it off. If it leaves some paper and glue behind grab some GooGone. Don't bother messing around with alcohol or other solvents.

Here's a pic of the sticker. Pretty large. Tried to remove it yesterday, but is not coming off easily. Will use the advice of everyone who responded. Thanks!
(My first ever post with pictures. Hope this comes out. If not sorry, I'll have to figure how to import pics in the near future.) Last edited by TooSlow; 06-13-2018 at 12:19 AM. Reason: tried a few ways to link pics from imgur |

Fucking prop 65. That's hilarious. I'd leave it there for spite.
