How to Remove Tire Stickers?

Published in Tire Maintenance 2 mins read

To remove tire stickers, you can initially try to pull them off. However, tire stickers, especially permanent stick-on letters, can often tear during the removal process.

Here's the approach, incorporating a technique for handling tears:

Steps for Removing Tire Stickers

  1. Attempt Initial Removal: Begin by trying to lift and pull the tire letter or sticker away from the tire surface until it starts to come off.
  2. Address Tearing: A common issue is that the sticker material may tear instead of coming off cleanly.
  3. Use Pliers for Grip: If the letter tears, don't worry. You can use a pair of pliers to help. Grip onto the torn part of the sticker itself with the pliers.
  4. Pull Away: With a firm grip using the pliers, gently but steadily pull the remaining piece of the sticker away from the tire. This tool helps you get a better hold on the stubborn or torn sections.

By following these steps, you can effectively remove tire stickers, using pliers as a useful tool if the sticker material tears during removal.
