+chrislux12 Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 Hi, I am selling my car and want to remove the Travel Bug, any suggestions how to remove it without damaging the paintwork? I realise the TB will not be reusable but it does seem well stuck on. Quote Link to comment
+cerberus1 Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 A little wd-40 sprayed on, left a few minutes, will peel off easily. Quote Link to comment
+on4bam Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 Try a hairdryer or anything else that blows hot air. Aceton or white spirit might do the trick too but make sure to try on your paintwork first where it won't be a problem. Quote Link to comment
+chrislux12 Posted February 19, 2019 Author Share Posted February 19, 2019 I tried the WD40 and it work with a bit of careful scraping with a wood tool I had, thanks for the suggestions. 2 Quote Link to comment

I realise the TB will not be reusable but it does seem well stuck on. BTW, don't forget that you can continue to use the bugs number anyway you please. you could make it into a t-shirt that you wear to events. There are other ways to continue to use it on a 'real' TB that could be left in a geocache. Let me know if you want any other idea on how to reuse it, I love ideas! Quote Link to comment
+chrislux12 Posted February 20, 2019 Author Share Posted February 20, 2019 Hadn't thought about reusing the number again, thanks for that idea. Quote Link to comment
+Calypso62 Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 I recently sold my GeoMobile. I removed the decal from the car then acquired a small toy car from my grandson. I attached a laminated note with the new goal and tracking code to the toy car and sent it on its way. It left Australia and is currently in the Czech Republic. Quote Link to comment
