Many fleet operators choose to apply advertising wraps on forklift surfaces for brand promotion, and after long term usage, the aged wraps often leave sticky residual glue or even take off partial original paint when people try to tear them roughly. For normal proper removal work, you should first prepare a low temperature adjustable hot air gun, keep the nozzle 20 cm away from the wrap surface, heat the whole area evenly at 60 to 70 degrees Celsius to soften the internal adhesive layer, then tear the wrap slowly at 45 degree angle, do not pull hard to avoid unexpected paint peeling. For the remaining sticky residual glue, you can apply mild environment friendly degumming agent, wipe the glue away with soft microfiber cloth gently, never use hard scouring pad or corrosive strong solvent to scratch or erode the original paint. After all wraps and residual glue are cleared, you can check the whole surface and mark the areas with chipped paint or obvious scratches. Clean the marked area thoroughly, remove all oil and dust, polish the damaged part gently to a smooth state, then apply matching color repair paint in multiple thin layers, wait for each layer to dry completely before applying next layer, then do fine polishing work to minimize the color difference between repaired area and original paint. Correct operation can effectively avoid problems like paint bubbling, uneven color or even hidden corrosion to vehicle metal shell.
