Anyone know a good way to remove the labels on the edge of the side plate without messing up the paint underneath? Heat? Some type of solvent? Plates are black so pretty much any damage will show
Thanks

Soak it with WD 40. It dissolves the adhesive slowly but it will rub off. I don't think it would hurt paint. Dominick
Tea tree oil is my go to for all sticker removal. Awesome stuff, smells good, and have never had it damage the paint beneath.

Under the labels it is anodized aluminum right? I pulled the labels off a silver one with a pick. There was some residual glue but no paint loss.

I start them with a fingernail then they tend to pull right off. The adhesive comes right off with Zep orange cleaner or something like Goo Gone. Sometimes the stickers sort of get cemented to the side plates and pulling them off doesn't work, then I reach for the WD40.
I've used naphtha (Ronsonol lighter fluid) with good results.

Peeled off in one peace, a little glue residue that came off with some kroil. Thanks
