Removing Old 3M Film From Coach
The coach we're looking at has old 3M plastic film that has discolored and cracked. I looked closely at it and its not going to peel off in one piece. Is there an easy way to remove the film?

Remove as much as the film itself as possible using razor straight blades of various sizes of your choosing. If this is on paint, scrap the razor for plastic versions and use a hair dryer or heat gun on low to soften the adhesive.
Then...buy a window tint adhesive remover. THIS IS A MUST. Nothing but purpose built remover will touch the adhesive...besides ammonia. The adhesive used on the 3M protection film is similar (not the same) to window tine.
Goo gone and others will eventually remove it, but not nearly as well IMO. You will be surprised.
Follow the directions of the remover. Take your time. It will come clean.
