How to Deal with Stickers on a Car?

Pour an appropriate amount of alcohol onto a cloth and use the alcohol-soaked cloth to wipe the sticker residue, rubbing it directly on the sticker marks. After wiping with the cloth, use a clean tissue to remove any remaining marks on the car.

My car often gets stuck with small advertisements, and I deal with them immediately upon discovery. First, use a hairdryer to heat the sticker, softening it, then gently lift a corner with a fingernail or plastic card and slowly peel it off. After removal, there might be adhesive residue—avoid using a scraper as it can scratch the paint. Instead, try alcohol wipes or adhesive remover to clean it off. Professional cleaning sprays bought online work best. For prevention, I choose parking spots with surveillance or in parking garages to reduce the chances of being targeted. A lesson learned is to remove them early to avoid hardened adhesive, which is harder to deal with. By the way, stickers come in various types, like spam ads or malicious ones. If illegal, take photos as evidence and report to the police. Maintaining the car's paint is also crucial; regular waxing can reduce adhesive residue. In short, take it step by step, and don’t rush—you’ll get it done.
