how do you remove the series 1 " escort rs turbo " Decal from the tailgate??

mines old looking so i have a new one to replace it with.

and would removing the boot decal go for the wing Rs decal also?

I replaced my few weeks ago. Take fan for hair and heat the decal, and you will see that is not so hard

hair dryer if you doing it at home but a good bodyshop will get them off for a few quid & make sure you polish the bit the decal was on so its nice & clean for the new decal

I also noticed that the decal I bought from Ford was on a shaped backing, which helped line it up on the boot. Not sure if they still do this though.

Boil the kettle, make a bru... and whilst your at it poor the remaining hot water over the decal and peel. Works on most sign writing and the old go faster stripes and is quick and easy. Then clean off fully, making sure the surface is free from any dirt, grease, polish etc.

the same goes for getting your bicycle grips off

never pour boiling or hot water on a cold cars body, theirs a high chance the paints lacquer could scar or crack, just try the hairdryer its not going to be as hot as water & will slowly melt the glue on the decals.
