    Default How to remove lettering

    I am interested in decaling my 2015 F3. My F3 is the black and chrome package. There ae chrome sections around the fog light plate. In this chrome are the letter spelling out "Can-Am". The decal needs to cover that area. How can I safely remove these letters?

    Also, I know LAMonster has lots of installation videos but they all seem to have the panels already removed. Anyone know where i can find a video on how to remove the majority of the panels?

    Default Heat gun

    You might be able to use a hair dryer on low fan and high heat? I bought a cheap heat gun from Harbor Freight. Once the whole sticker is hot it peals off really easy when you get the first corner up. I follow up with goo-off and a soft rag to remove glue debris. Then I wax the affected area.
    Good Luck

    Hair dryer does the trick, just whipped mine off yesterday, doesn't take excessive amounts of heat neither.

    Gentle heat then just pry them off with your fingernails.

    Yes a hair dryer does good. Just stay away from the painted parts. Don't want to blister the paint. Neosporin is good to take glue off also. Just rub it on and wait a couple of minutes and wipe it off

    Yup! A hairdryer, and I've used WD-40 to remove any adhesive residue...
