"In this clip I'm going to show you the best way to remove vehicle graphics. Okay, now that they've put graphics on, the customer decides they didn't like it. There are several things you need to take it off. One, is the little squeegee with a sharp edge to take it off. Some adhesive remover and your best friend the heat gun. You want to apply a little heat to the unit. Keep in mind it's on paint and you don't want to get it too hot because you could burn the paint. Take your sharp edge and start peeling away. And it's off. Obviously your vinyl is no good, but after you take it off, you better take the adhesive remover, a little paper towel. Simply go across the area that you had to remove any of the tape glue that is leftover and once the tape glue is removed over, you can take any kind of window cleaner or any kind of household cleaner and clean that surface area up and it's good to go. This works for many occasions. For example if you put the wrong vinyl on or if you put the vinyl on a wrong area, once it's put on you can take the heat gun, peel it right back off. Obviously you can't reuse it, but you can get some more vinyl on, put it back on there and your customer would be very satisfied."
