how to remove baked in sticker/adhesives?
 
Hi guys, I've been trying to remove this, tried wd-40, goo gone, 3m adhesive remover (works better than goo gone, spray and wipe and adhesives will be gone), if i use razor blades plastic edges, it can knock off a few pieces randomly but the whole thing is like hard as a rock, you guys have any suggestions on how to remove this?

Thanks!

Carefully heat with a heat gun ... being extremely careful to not overheat the paint ... then use 3M Adhesive Remover on a Terry Cloth Towel to remove ...

I don't think an adhesive remover will work for vinyl.

You will need to remove the door handle for this.

this guy removed the handle, looks like a lot of work

what about a dremel, do they have something like that in a dremel size?

I have the same issue with the same clear vinyl that turn yellow.
I soaked it with goo gone - put a paper towel on it and just soaked it - then used a plastic panel removal tool and plastic razor blades to remove as much as possible. I still couldn’t get all the yellow stuff out.

This method may work for you, controlled heat with steam to soften the adhesive then plastic scraper
