  1. whatis the best way to remove stickers without leaving the sticky stuff
    on the frame. if there is no way to do it without leaving the sticky
    stuff on is there a way to get the sticky stuff off. sorry if it was
    confusing to read because it was sort of hard for me to read and I
    wrote it but i didn't know of any other way to put it

  2. Peel off the sticker then use rubbing alchohol and rub it off.

    I used it to get the stickers off my Koxx trials frame (which i now
    regret) and it didn't take off the paint, but it worked great on the
    glue stuff on the stickers.

    That would suck soo much if it still didn't come off. I think I would
    be fine with the sticker one there but I would definately not want a
    [censored] soaked one on there:o

    either "goo-gone" or "goof off" can be found at your local hardware
    store. it does wonders for removing gums, tars, greases, anything you
    can't get off with soap and water. rubbing alcohol will work as well
    but it isn't as effective as the two above-mentioned products...

  19. remove frame from uni, submerge frame in pool of gasoline, light
    gasoline on fire. It works everytime.

    (don't blame me if your frame is ruined, you hurt yourself, or if you
    start a fire)

    also, if this wasn't already mentioned, rubbing alchohol works pretty
    well too.

  20. Isoproponol around 70% will work. It is sold as rubbing alchol, but it
    is good because it wil evaporate off of your frame. It smells really
    bad and make sure you use gloves. Do not drink. It won't make you blind
    (thats methanol) but it will probably screw you up.

    Acetone works too. Sometimes sold as paint stripper or thinner.
    Probably won't damage powdercoating, but spot test first! Use
    gloves!!!

    Oh yeah, some spirits will do it too, but why waste them?
