I always use a razor blade to remove my old stickers.
Then peel slowly... very slowly.

And make sure you clean (and dry!) the window before you put the new sticker on, makes it less likely to fall off mid-year.

I guess the short answer is 'no' :)

Hmm this is a new one. Oiling a sticker.

That kinda defeats the purpose of sticking it on.

I havnt laughed that hard in a while :P

I just use a blade and take it off, most of the time it just peels off for me.

If it does become a bitch, and half of it gets left on the window, i just get some prepsol on a rag, comes off easy.

But yeh, a blade and some prepsol does the job

I find the new style stickers that have been around for a couple of years now just peel straight off with your fingers once you get the corner started.

Yeah i find the same- just start slowly at the corner and they come right off- maybe you guys leave yours in the sun or something- my car is always garaged though so thats prolly the difference

I just put some boiling hot water on a sponge and held it behind the sticker for about 2-3 min, came off easy.

Go to a supermarket or hardware store, and buy a product called "desolvit" it's a citrus based solvent (not like turps or something) thats designed to dissolve sticker glue, it also gets rid of all that annoying residue when you finish...great stuff
