I've tried rubbing a hot water-soaked rag over the sticker repeatedly (which usually works for registration stickers on the windshield) but it still won't budge. The sticker is on the body/trunk and has been on for around 3 years already. I'm afraid to ruin the paint. Help!

Heat vinyl stickers with a hair dryer or heat gun. Do not overheat the paint, or it will be more likely to chip.
Peel the sticker slowly, pulling it off at a 90-degree angle while heating the next section.
Put a solution of 1 c. rubbing alcohol and 1 c. water in a spray bottle.
Squirt the sticker with the solution and allow it to soak in for a few minutes.
Never use a metal scraper or anything abrasive on your car's finish; try a plastic putty knife instead.
Waxing the car will help buff up the surface after the adhesive has been removed.

Heat it with a hair dryer and peel slowly. Then you can try baby oil or WD40 but be careful

Use a heat gun and a razor blade. That's the best way!
