Removal of 10 year old trailer ugly decal pictures

GraphXoff is well worth the money. Highly recommend it.
With two bottles I removed the huge decal off the front. The big ones and smaller ones on the sides and one on the rear.
All were the ones that were scenes of covered bridges over rivers.
Trailer looks much better with them gone.
The swoosh decals had been replace at factory apparently and they look good. Yet

I did the same, and it just looked too plain, I finally put the replacement ones back on the front that Keystone sent me . I have a complete set , and have replaced one or two on the sides as they get bad .

Should I put Cedar Creek on it again or just put “Up the Creek” :)

Graphxoff works great!
I now used a polishing compound and with a polisher just did one small area. Really brightened it up.
I’ll be doing the whole front.
Then ...should I replace the graphics with some thing new or just leave it all white??
Ideas anyone?

Thank for letting us know.
How much effort with the grafx stuff?
I've always been a fan of heat gun and razor for crusty old decals.
Eraser wheel for tough double sided tape.
I've got a bunch to remove on the TC if I get time.
Quicker the better!

Nothing seems to be very fast, they are a pain to get off. Hopefully that GraffXoff will work a little faster .

Heat gun , and a little 3m adhesive remover if it doesn't all come off works, but it still a bit tedious ,and slow .

Time to report. Eraser wheel burned the gel coat so I ordered the GraffXoff suggested. Bought the smallest bottle to try it. Works great! Will order a bigger bottle now.

Good to know, 3M adhesive remover worked on the sides on mine ,but the Montana Logo on the front of my 2008 fifth wheel ,the 3M adhesive remover did not touch it, eraser wheel would not either, I literally had to scrape it off with a razor blade, and then it was not easy .

May have to try that GraffXoff

the 3m wheels don't burn like the less expensive ones

Yes of course there is ghosting but it’s not as bad a look as the bug, sun and wind damaged cracked up aged-looked that it had.
I’d like to do something classy and unique in its place. But first I’d like to try and polish it up as best I can.
Has anyone seen unique replacements?
The decals that look like someone dipped a cows tail in a pail of paint and swiped it on were redone at factory by previous owner. So they are in good shape. They did not redo the Name CC or the ugly
pictures. That’s what I’m taking off.

Even if you remove the graphic, after 10 years you will have ghosting on the side of the trailer.

Did you end up with ghosting after removal? If so, you might check out places that do vehicle wraps. Probably expensive to wrap the whole RV, but they could probably do something for just that area which would be cool, custom, and unique.

Xoff is very easy. Let it soak much longer than suggested if cooler. Scrape with plastic blade and wash up with warm soapy water.
