removing vinyl

[Johnboy72]

Trying to remove the vinyl from a kart I picked up. It's the thin stuff and it's a pain to remove. Been picking away at it with a razor blade but is there any tricks that could speed up the process?

Heat it up first. Like with a heat gun or, very carefully, with a propane torch. That's how I do it on the work vans.

Heat it up and slowly and carefully peel off

heat it up and pull her off and use 3m adhesive remover to get any gum left behind off

heat as everyone has mentioned, use a dead credit card to start a corner peel then peel up a bit til it feels hard, lil more heat while holding up on area you just lifted, til soft again, vontinue lifting. Rapid Remover from a sign shop or 3m adhesive remover. Finish off with a good wipe down of rubbing alcohol to base out / neutralize the acid and chems in the adhesive remover.
