    I 've always used a hair dryer to remove my old stickers from my boat. Heat them up and rub it off.

    There's some stuff at my WalMart in the marine section called "Sticker-Off" in a little pump bottle. Works great.........finds it's way to the adhesive to break it down. (Hanging beside that is some "Sticker-On"............I guess for gettin stubborn stickers to stick..............I've not tried it).

    be careful when/if using it .... it contains acetone which may also melt the clearcoat, paint, or surface of the fiberglass.

    Not sure what chemicals "Sticker Off" contains ... but, I'd read the label, first, before purchasing.

    I have worked with vinyl graphics a lot as well.
    You will need a heat gun or hair dryer, a plastic putty knife/scraper (old plastic card), some denatured or rubbing alcohol, and some elbow grease!
    If the adhesive is real stubborn, that GOO OFF stuff works really well.

    I have removed adhesive residue off of metal surfaces (painted or bare) with brake cleaner with good success.

    these stickers are 23 years old and they just flake apart. I heated them up and went to work with a razor blade and a steady hand, followed by goo gone and a lil fingernail action
