Graphics Removal

Hi

I have finally started removing all the graphics from the Montana. I have found some things interesting. Some of the graphics have shriveled up and fallen off. Others look not to bad. However the word Montana on the front cap, Rear cap and street side are in real good condition and show very little signs of shrinking.

So I have been using a product called Vinyl Off on the graphics the look the best. I have tried it on the ones that had shrunk a lot and they are so thin I still have to use a heat gun and scraper.

I finally got to the front cap word Montana. I found it to be much thicker material and the vinyl off did its job and I was able to pull the letters whole. It still ripped at the narrow space between letters.

Out of curiosity I took a piece of the Montana graphic to the local vinyl sign and vehicle wrap lady and she advised me that the 3 Montana signs were made from a much better material and were laminated with a UV resistant laminate.

Now that really rubs me the wrong way!!!!

Interesting. The Montana name on both the front and rear of mine started peeling badly last year, along with the mountains on the front. Everything on both sides still look very good.
