The trunk stripes have been on my 72’ Swinger for around 15yrs, starting to unglue/lift in a few places, also just brittle from the sun. I’d like to replace them. Any tips for removing the old ones without paint damage? Also who is making a good replacement set? Thanks.
Oh yeah, it's a hybrid.....it burns gas and tires!

Thanks, mild heat sounds good, was not keen on any chemicals to risk damage to the paint! What would be best to remove any residual addhesive?

3M makes an adhesive remover that works pretty good. there may be other brands out there that work better, but the 3M stuff is the only brand i have used a few times. then there is that stuff called "goo gone". that works pretty good for common sticky labels like racing decals.
