JT! Posted July 1, 2005 Report Share Posted July 1, 2005 How? I have a chrome bike (if thats the right word) (t-lite) and i want to remove the stickers. How do i go about doing it without doing any damage to the paintwork? By the way I have no idea about anything in this area, so use little words B) Thanks. :) :S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Posted July 1, 2005 Report Share Posted July 1, 2005 If there not under the laquer (not sure if they are on a t-lite) Boil Kettle Pour Over Stickers Peal Off Remove any residue with some kind of cleaner Job done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Siders77 Posted July 1, 2005 Report Share Posted July 1, 2005 (edited) That's what i've used a few times. I haven't used it on frames though. Give it a try B) Edited July 1, 2005 by Siders77 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
modrider666 Posted July 1, 2005 Report Share Posted July 1, 2005 Yeah use nitro moors, that will take the laquer off i think without damging the chrome at all. I think :(" Cheers Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, is the whole frame laqured (sp?) or is it just the area of the frame where the sticker is. And what do you do, do you just rub it on, or do you rub it on the then do what Danny said further up. :P Will nitromose destory the paintwork in anyway? :( Edited July 1, 2005 by JT!

I was hoping just to remove the sticker and thats it, if i have to dick about with this and that i won't bother. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it would be hard to cover them up, plus i would have wanted the 'lite-guy' sticker taken off and all the other little bits. Never mind. Edited July 1, 2005 by JT!
