thanks cif, have just ordered. this is starting to cost a fortune. the T-cut didn't touch it. i'm going to try this once it arrives, if not it will have to stay like it, keep the stickers on and just get sticky.
thanks everyone for the help and suggestions

I don't know if you have this over there, but 3M Adhesive remover is a miracle substance found at many auto parts stores here in the USA. Just pour some on a rag, hold it onto the decal for about 15 seconds then start rubbing it a bit (warms it up). Usually can just peel the decal off with the tip of a pocket knife. Then repeat to remove the left over adhesive. I had to remove the lettering from about half a dozen company vehicles that were being retired & sold off. Tried the hair dryer, good to remove the decal but not worth much on the adhesive. For my money, (make that the companies money!) 3M adhesive remover is the best, bar none.
