How to remove car wrap easily
Introduction
Did you know that it's possible to remove vinyl wraps from your car? In this article, I'll show you how easy it is. You just need some warm water, a heat gun, and patience. Read on!
Wash your car.
Wash your car with soap and water.
If you have access to a car wash, use it!
If you don't have access to a car wash, use a power washer or sponge-and-brush technique (you'll be surprised how much dirt gets off).
Spray warm water on the vinyl wrap.
Spray warm water on the vinyl wrap. Do not use hot water, and make sure it's not too cold or too hot; otherwise, you could damage your car's paint job.
Wait for a few minutes for the glue to soften up before removing the wrap using an old credit card or toothpick (if necessary).
Use a heat gun to loosen the adhesive.
Use a heat gun to loosen the adhesive.
Don't use a blow dryer or torch. The heat from these tools can distort vinyl, causing it to crack and peel off after being applied in some instances.
Avoid using too-hot or too-cold temperatures with your heat gun (or any tool). For example, if you're melting leftover glue from another project onto your wrap, don't set the temperature too high; otherwise the plastic could melt instead of softening up so that you can remove it easily later on! If you're trying to remove something stuck on top of your car's paint job without damaging its finish further than necessary then try keeping things cool—this will ensure that all traces of adhesive are removed before any damage occurs!
Peel the vinyl wrap by hand.
If you're using a razor blade, start by scraping the vinyl off. This will take some time and patience, so be sure to have some kind of surface protection in place (like an old newspaper or cloth) to protect any surfaces you don't want to gouge with your blade.
If you're using plastic scraper, heat up the area with a heat gun until it softens enough for you to peel off the vinyl without damaging it further—about five minutes should do the trick. Once this step is complete, use another tool like an X-Acto knife or scissors to remove any remaining pieces of adhesive left behind by previous scrapers; these may contain sharp edges that could damage your car after removing them from their original location on top of your vehicle's paint job! Finally, take care when pulling out any remaining pieces; they're very likely still attached somewhere nearby because they've been heated up during removal process above--so if there are any loose bits left behind after cutting away all other attachments...you know what? Just use hot water instead!
Clean up any remaining glue residue.
If you have any remaining glue residue, use a sponge and warm water to clean up any remaining glue. For the most part, this will be a one-time process but if you notice that there are still some residues on your car's surface or other parts of your vehicle (like the windows), then repeat these steps until all traces of adhesive have been removed.
If you're using cotton swabs instead of sponges or rags, make sure they're not too wet before touching anything else! If they are too wet (or even just damp), then they'll stick together rather than picking up dust/dirt as intended—and that could ruin everything else!
Follow these steps, and you will be able to easily remove vinyl wraps from your car.

Do not use a heat gun on the vinyl wrap. These tools can cause damage to your vehicle's paint finish, and may even melt the adhesive underneath the wrap.
Do not use other methods of removing the vinyl wrap, such as rubbing alcohol or acetone-based products. They won't work as well at removing glue residue because they don't have any powerful enough chemical properties to break down what remains after removal of your current vehicle's surface texture has been achieved through other means (such as sandpaper).

Wash your car.
Spray warm water on the vinyl wrap.
Use a heat gun to loosen the adhesive.
Peel the vinyl wrap by hand. 5) Clean up any remaining glue residue.
