How Remove State USA Sticker Map?

Anyone know the best way to remove the state USA sticker map from gelcoat? It's a really bad brown color under the transparent section. Anyone done this?

I haven't done it but I would imagine its just like any other sticker: apply heat, peel off, and pack plenty of patience (a little goo gone will likely help after its been removed).

You could try a hair dryer for heat--just be careful as the same method that removes the state sticker can also remove the decals on the side of the coach.

Thanks Jamie. Used hair dryer and it came off. Will now work to get goo off.

Goo Gone or Goof Off. I always remove stickers put on by dealers. Never yet had one offer to pay me to advertise for them!

WD40 also works well to remove the glue.
