Cleaning for New Decals
After purchasing new decals on the internet for my 2001 2880RL I need to know what to use to clean surface before putting on new ones.
The decals are for a 2003 Big Sky according to the labeling, but I only paid $70 for the complete set. They are all mountain scenes. They didn't have the "Montana" stickers so I will have to find them somewhere else.

When I had my Monty graphics installed on my TV they used denatured alcohol.
BTW-The folks that installed my graphics are in the graphics business. My TV was a tiny job compared to the vans and buses they normally do. These rigs had FULL graphics on all sides and the roof. A very professional outfit.

What is the web site address for the graphics you ordered? I could use some new front graphics and also the left side ones.

Whatever you use, just make sure it will remove was. A degreaser works well. Alcohol works well. I'd probably first clean with a degreaser, maybe something like Dawn dishwashing liquid. Then I'd use the denatured alcohol to remove any film from the soap. I remember those side bumper strips we used to put on cars to avoid door dings and how you'd sometimes see one going down the road that had slipped. I'd bet they didn't remove the wax before installing it.
