removing tattered decal

[DBabylon]

The logo decal on my back of my TT is in bad shape - faded and chipping. I would just like to remove it. Does anyone know how to do this? Thanks

Eraser wheels are great for leftover goo after removing trim pieces and old crusty decals that won't pull off after heated. But a lot of decals will pull off pretty easy with some heat froma heat gun and skills with a razor blade.
Don't use on aluminum or powder coat and for some reason it burns pretty easy on my camper fiberglass. Gave up on the wheel and started scraping and peeling. Didn't take too long. Clean up the residue with lacquer thinner....again except on powder coat.

I removed the decals on my front cap, rear, and just the Flagstaff logos from each side of my 5th wheel. I used this adhesive remover:

Aircraft Decal and Adhesive Remover

It did a really good job for me. I STRONGLY ADVISE you to test in a small area first just to make sure that it is safe for your finish.

these are all great suggestions. I will try them once I pick up the trailer.

3M eraser wheel and a good corded drill. Will take off the decal and most of the adhesive. Then use 3M adhesive remover, or mineral spirits, to remove the remaining adhesive.

I used a rubber wheel that I put on my drill, got it at a paint store. Worked well with no damage.

warming it up with a hair dryer really helps to peel it off.
