Holy Stickers Batman-AKA Sticker Shock

What kills me is the page in the manual that lists and pictures each sticker and its proper installation location. I suppose it could be handy if I'd removed all the stickers and wanted to sell the tractor with the stickers. Which makes me wonder how many $ Kubota gets for replacement stickers.

Hair drier works wonders on stickers, old park admission stickers, etc. Get the glue hot and it doesn't stick as well anymore.

Don't really mind A FEW of the stickers, the ones to take off my BH are handy. What bugs me is the dealer stickers..there are more of them than safety ones on my tractor!!

Worse one was on my truck though, stupid Ziebart put one on my back window after getting it undercoated. I took it off to tint the windows (and a PITA it was to take it off too), went back to ziebart the following year and told em NOT TO PUT ANY STICKERS ON!!! Pick up my truck...you guessed it, bit a** ugly sticker on MY NEW TINT. Ziebart wound up giving me a new tint job! I HATE STICKERS!!!

Well, I got a wild hair last night and started pulling them off. Every single one. Used a razor blade scraper but the glue is a little different on each one as noted.

When I was done I thought the few scratches in the paint looked better than the stickers. Will go back this weekend and cleanup the excess glue.

Regardless, I feel fulfilled.

Funny, I thought the FEL sticker was a keg of beer falling out on the operator. :laughing:

3M Eraser Wheel take that glue right off, just don't hold it in one spot for a long time and don't let the surface heat up.

All kinds of removers work. I like "Goo" remover, even comes with a scrapper on the tip to take stickers off. What works well to is ether...spray it on as you peel, instantly destroys the glue crap residue!

Just mentioning WD-40, printed on the can:

Cleans - Most surfaces of: - Grease - Grime - Tar - Adhesives - Gum - Tape - Crayon - Scuff Marks - Water Deposits

just let it work in a few minutes to soften the glue, works great and most people already have a can or two on hand.
