    Removing z71 decals

    I was thinking about taking mine off. How have others gone about doing this and will the paint under the sticker look different than the rest of the truck?

    Plenty of people have done it, myself included. Warm them up with a hair dryer or do it on a hot summer day and they should peel right off. Shouldn't be any difference in paint unless yours is seriously neglected or it's an old truck.

    Sounds good thanks. My paint is in really good shape. It's been taken really good care of, so I should be in good shape.

    I had a silverado with black onyx paint that was 4 years old, and when I removed the badges with the 3m adhesive eraser I actually had no metal flake under the badges and it was a factory paint job... I know weird but true, and you could definately tell...

    Some jack ass clear coated over the z71 sticker on the driver side of my truck. I took the sticker off anyway. I need to wet sand and have it cleared but you cant tell unless your 6 inches away. Thats on my to do list next month.
