The work area temperature should be between
18ÉC (65ÉF) and 32ÉC (90ÉF).A tape stripe/decal
should not be replaced if the work area temper-
ature is less than 18ÉC (65ÉF).
The following equipment and material are neces-
sary for body stripe/decal removal and installation:
²Commercial tape stripe/decal removal solution.
²Commercial adhesive removal solution.
²Liquid dish detergent (for the wetting solution).
²Mixture of wetting solution.
²Commercial wax and silicone removal solution.
²Isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol.
²Small squeegee (plastic or hard rubber).
²Water bucket and sponge.
²Clean wiping rags or paper towels.
²Heat gun (or infra-red heat bulb).
²Wax pencil.
²Sharp knife, single edge razor blade or X-acto
knife.
²Pair of scissors.
²Needle or pin.
A wetting solution assures a better bond between
the painted surface of the body and the tape stripe/
decal. Prepare a supply of wetting solution by mixing
two or three teaspoons of dish detergent with 1 gal-
lon of water.Do not use soap.
Too much detergent will reduce the effective-
ness of the mixture.
REMOVAL
The key to successful tape stripe/decal re-
moval is to apply heat to area and slowly peel
stripe/decal from panel.
(1) Clean the repaired surface, adjacent panels and
door openings as necessary.
(2) Start at one end of the tape stripe/decal and
apply heat with a heat gun. Slowly peel the stripe/
decal from the panel by pulling it back.Do not pull
the tape stripe/decal outward from the panel.
WARNING: USE THE TAPE STRIPE/DECAL RE-
MOVAL SOLUTION IN A WELL-VENTILATED AREA
ONLY.
(3) A commercial tape stripe/decal removal solution
can be used for stripe/decal removal at areas where a
heat gun is ineffective:
²mask-off the body panel area surrounding the tape
stripe/decal (Fig. 1).
²Move the removal solution spray back and forth
across the complete length of the stripe/decal with a
smooth, steady motion.
²Ensure that the complete stripe/decal is covered
with the solution.
²Allow the stripe/decal removal solution to remain
on the stripe/decal for 20 minutes.²After 20 minutes, peel stripe/decal away from the
flange and, starting at a corner, peel the stripe/decal
from the body (Fig. 2).
²If there is difficulty with peeling stripe/decal away
from body use a squeegee for stripe/decal removal
(Fig. 3).
²With the stripe/decal removed, scrape all the
stripe/decal removal solution from the panel surface
before proceeding.
WARNING: USE THE ADHESIVE REMOVAL SOLU-
TION IN A WELL-VENTILATED AREA ONLY.
(4) After the stripe/decal is removed, remove any
adhesive remaining on body with a removal solution.
(5) After 3 to 5 minutes, use a squeegee to remove
adhesive (Fig. 4).
(6) Remove the masking tape and mask from the
panel.
(7) Wipe the panel with a cloth with a general pur-
pose cleaning solution.
