This one has been on since the 2000 election! It's hard and tough as leather. Any suggestions? Goo-Gone isn't enough.

Ha, ha, Tomnpatgrn! To be honest, it's a 2000 Bush sticker. You can't even see any letters anymore. The 2004 version is on the other side of the bumper.

Slow and steady will get it done. Trying to force things along generally just makes a mess! The procedure consists of five steps: 1. Spritz the sticker and the area around it with a little WD-40. The WD combined with the heat in step 2 will dissolve the adhesive along the edges of the sticker, making it easier to peel back. 2. Allow the WD to sit for a few moments, and then begin warming up the sticker (with something like a blow dryer or heat gun) and the immediate area around the sticker. You don't need to get the area blistering hot, and remember, you are working with a painted surface. Overheating the area can cause the paint to soften, making it easier to scratch. 3. As the sticker warms up you'll feel the surface become more pliable. When it does, start at one corner and slowly and carefully peel up the edge. 4. As the sticker lifts, apply a little heat to the leading edge. If the sticker starts to melt, ease up the heat. If it tears at some point, don't panic—you can remove the remnants later. 5. Once the sticker has been removed, wash down any leftover adhesive with WD-40, then use a clean rag to wipe the residue away.

Pressure washer or a steamer if the bumper is painted . You don't want to use weird chemicals with paint. If it is crome all you have ti do is wet it real good with gasoline and use one of those green scrub pads.

don't laugh, try a little gasoline. use a piece of old t-shirt so as not to scratch the surface underneath, then a little dish soap and water to get rid of the gasoline residue.
