 Subject: Air Bag warning sticker removal
IP: Logged
Message:
A fellow emailed me and asked that I repost this old note:
I have used this little trick on the last 3 new vehicles I have owned and never had any problem with the removal of the stickers.. Though you worry about damage to the visor there is really little to no risk as long as you follow the directions as below.
Anyway, remove the visor and place an evenly wet (not dripping)washcloth over the sticker. Take an iron set on medium and heat the washcloth that is placed over the sticker until it begins to steam. Heat the complete wash cloth area over the sticker! Now, very slowly (Slowly!) peel off the sticker. Right away, IF any adhesive residue remains gently (gently!) rub it off with the hot, wet wash cloth. Use caution with the rubbing as to not damage the material. I then dry with a hair dryer set at low and held at a distance. After dry, wipe the visor with a dry soft cloth to get the texture all going one way. NOTE: Never place the iron directly on the sticker and be sure the complete sticker is evenly heated/steamed prior to the SLOW removal of the sticker.

I used the above method as well and it worked pretty well. I had to follow up with a citrus based adhesive remover (Goo-Be-Gone)on one of the visors to remove the last bit of adhesive. I found that after the sticker is removed, repreating the above process doesn't take away any more adhesive.
