Removal of fugly warning stickers on Sun Visors?

[Ianb]

I removed mine by soaking cloth in 99% wiping alcohol and covering with plastic bag. No glue was left behind but be patient and wait a good 15 mins or so to sully release the sticker.

Maybe in the UK the stickers are attached in a different manner. U.S. stickers do not come off when they are soaked in alcohol, or other solvents. We used to be able to get these off, but I'm sure our government enacted some program to ensure they are extremely difficult to remove.

As Rapture mentions above, the stickers in the US are mandated to be "permanently" fixed by federal regulations, to ensure (or make it practically impossible) to remove them without damaging the visor, so in the US, most of these stickers are practically baked into the visors. I happen to also own a car in Europe where I've removed the corresponding warning stickers using a light solvent w/o leaving a trace.

For anyone interested, I covered my visor labels and I'm 99% satisfied.

Hope this helps others.

Very helpful, thanks! I’ve got some Alcantara on order, just need to pick up some adhesive.

I’m a fan of 3M 77….but are there any thoughts on whether this is the best for Alcantara? (I’ve never worked with it before)

I suppose my use of the 3M 77 with alcantara, hasn't yet passed "the test of time", however it looks good so far. It's meant to glue fabric, so I assume it'll be OK.

One more dumb question...

Any tips for Visor removal?
Do the little plastic bracket covers just pop off with a trim tool?

Thanks!
