Removing OEM Mazda decals?

Get a heat gun or if you have no access, use a hairdryer. I used a hairdryer to remove the pinstriping on my 10th AE. It was a little time consuming but it got it off.

When I took the pinstriping off my 85 GSL I used a hair dryer and a thin guitar pick. 3M adhesive remover works well, too.

Just be gentle.
