When I replaced the striping on my boat and the decals on my motor cover I bought some decal remover from Walmart. I wiped it on and let it set for a few minutes then used a plastic scraper to remove the bulk of it. After that I took an old towel and put the remover on it and rubbed the excess adhesive off. Worked pretty easily.

I've done them all. Hair dryer, not hot enough. Heat gun, too dam hot OUCH! Gasket scraper gouges and scrapes the gel coat. Plastic paint scraper, wear down my thumb nail and burn my thumb with the heat gun or hair dryer.

The 3m wheel is the way to go. Took my boot stripe off in about 5 minutes! I was amazed! It must use some kind of alien technology.
