Resolve to move on. “Political campaigns and straight A’s end at some point,” so the stickers you slap on a car to show partisan loyalty or parental pride might eventually need to go. When that day comes, clean the stickers and the area around them first, then grab a hairdryer.
Heat and scrape. Set the dryer on high and point it at the middle of the sticker, holding it a few inches from the surface, never on it. Once the middle gets warm, move the dryer slowly to the edges. By scraping at an edge with a credit card or your fingers, you should be able to start peeling the sticker away. Repeat heating and scraping as needed.
