I've been prepping my zords for those show accurate decals and ran across various ways to remove stickers and adhesives:
Goo-Gone- the old standard, good for normal stickers from sticker sheets but not the best. I'm concerned about using the more stronger pro-brands of goo-gone like their gel stripping version, seems to me it might take the paint with it on some things, particularly chrome parts of dragonzord
Petroleum Jelly- this will wear down superglue if need be but still has trouble removing some adhesives. More a random hint if you do something dumb with superglue. Getting PJ on the glued spot right away may keep it from hardening at all
Rubbing alcohol- ONLY if you're working on an area that's molded a certain color, not painted. It will strip or lighten most paints given the chance. I use 70% as it's the less abrasive one.
Ice- surprisingly, the chewing gum method works. I was having real trouble with the pre-applied decals from Bandai coming off on Dragonzord, especially the chrome. Everything above failed. I got rid of the sticker easy but the adhesive would not leave the gold chrome. So I rubbed an ice cube in like a blade then picked away at the adhesive with my finger. It began to ball up in pieces and remove.
Paint scratch fixer- GS-27 car scratch remover will take out rubs and scratches from the paint of your figures or toys. ALWAYS TEST in small unseen spot. I know it will strip vac metal. Seems to work fine on plastic detailing or diecast metal
For you morpher customizers, oven cleaner to strip bandai's paint [you got a few hours wait for it to strip it clean to the plastic] and then WD-40 to strip any primer, spray paint, or clearcoat you add that you want to remove. WD-40 will make it so much easier to scrape off a bad paint job you put on and it's quick.
