De-Stickering & Re-Stickering my Dad's Bike

[@jordesign]

Pro tip for removing decal residue: Use Naptha (aka Lighter Fluid).. It works really well.. It dries very quickly, so for stubborn adhesive, I soak a paper towel in the fluid, the rest it on residue (tape if necessary).. In about 2-3 minutes it will come off fairly easily with just a thumb/finger...

[@lesleysmith5623]

Think your ol’ man would appreciate a wash and detail on his bike for his Xmas. Would make a good video.

[@PedroFTeixeira]

I saw the thumbnail, saw the title "stickers"... and thought "I'm going to skip this one". Saw it was a Car Cleaning Guru video... "I was wrong, I'll see this!"

[@thegoldendog7991]

Exactly what I did.

[@p1mmyt0w3ll]

same. usually I wouldn't watch videos on bikes, but I feel like every video he posts contains skills and tips for every day tasks.

[@alinizam3285]

please Guru, start uploading more videos. If you don't, i will find you and throw some muddy water on your car.

[@CarCleaningGuru]

@Ali Nizam To be fair I could probably get a “Some Nutter Threw Muddy Water All Over My Car” video out of it.

[@davidbsearle]

We all know that muddy water would bead right off the Nismobile

[@Tom-q6h2c]

@@CarCleaningGuru i think the muddy water will just repeal of the paintwork with the amount of sealants that has been applied to the paintwork 😂😂😂

[@mikeparker9812]

It won't just repel, but bounce straight back into the throwers face. Now that would make a good video 😁

I'm extremely happy with the content of the video, very valuable task to learn to do well and excellent production as always.

[@NoOnesIdea]

I used for cleaning of the car the stickers residue by some spray for cleaning carburetors - it cleans the glue as a charm with no damage for the car/bike body.

[@milosbgd]

Nice video, Only one thing is that you should use a Hairdryer for the stickers after application.

[@RobWhittlestone]

Hahaha! Italian stallion! WD40 does a good job on old glue. My Ducati916 from the launch year had AGIP stickers on the sides of the fairing. It was soooo cool.

[@TheEpicSponge]

Nice work Joe! Seeing the Tuono almost makes me regret having my own RSV1000R up for sale!

[@TheRed86]

Should use soapy water when applying the new sticker. Makes the job much easier.

[@CarCleaningGuru]

It does and it doesn’t in my experience. It’s messier and can be a pain to squeegee the soap out and get it to tack without the sticker shifting. For larger stickers yes but something this size that I can carefully peel back a few times I prefer a dry application.

[@tonyosullivan2382]

Please surprise us with a video Christmas morning lad. That would be great. We can sneak away from our families for half an hour to enjoy it. 👍

That’s not an easy task, I think you did amazingly well, I’ve seen some people heat up the surface again before applying the decals- you should still be proud! And a lovely lovely piece of Italian art there :)

Oh this was PAIN to watch. Mr Guru - advise for You: spray some soapy water on the sticker (on the glue side), spray the panel, put the sticker, place it super precise as You want. Then use squeegee or credit card wrapped with MF cloth, press and squeeze out the water starting from center. This method is super safe for stickers and gives You full control over placement. Cheers! Hope I helped.

[@CarCleaningGuru]

I did consider it but it takes ages to tack in a cool environment like this in my experience plus it makes a mess. For bigger stickers yes, definitely.

[@mescekchoppers1]

@@CarCleaningGuru thx for the video anyway, it was something new on this channel. Wish You all the best in 2021!

[@johnturner4400]

Not too much soapy water. Half a drop of soap in a spray bottle of water is more than enough. I would also leave the paper on while squeezing out the water and peel off after.

[@mescekchoppers1]
