What is the easist way to get stickers off of helmets? I put the Ski-doo stickers on my modular and would like to change the color.

I would peel/scratch all the paper off with my fingernails, and then get the residue off with nail polish remover and a paper towel.

Peel off what you can by hand then spray it with wd-40, works like a charm.

I use "goo gone" to remove glue residue on all surfaces including painted and windshield. leaves no residue of its own and doesnt scratch surface..my pennies worth

Use a heat gun on low setting. I recently took 20 or 30 stickers off a '72 Yamaha I am restoring and that was the only thing that would touch them. I then used mineral spirits to take the remaining glue off.

A heat gun if you have one, otherwise borrow your wife's hairdryer. *Warm it up, then slowly peel it off. *If there is glue residue, WD40 works like a charm. *I just did mine the other day. *First I used goo gone, then tried the WD40. *Threw the goo gone in the garbage.

if you feel confident enough you can use a razor blade, just be careful not to scratch the helmet

if you dont have a heat gun or hair dryer stick in the oven for about 5 min at the lowest setting
