Anybody try to remove those Visor warning labels???

[BiggerBend]

Can't stand those visor white and yellow warning labels.
I get why they are there.... But I don't want them on my truck.
I tried getting them off another vehicle and it turned into a big mess.
My Bronco is new enough I wonder if a little heat and patience will get them off.

Just get sticker overlays. @StickerFab has them. No mess. No Fuss.

In past cars trying to remove them was always an unsatisfying result. Never really gone like they weren’t there. I bought the vinyl topo decals to cover them up from @StickerFab to cover them up and really happy with that solution. Still not perfect solution but better if you like any of the decals they have.

I vaguely remember someone steaming them off, but it seemed more involved than most vehicles. In that sense the vinyl finish (vs cloth) material is a blessing and a curse. Curse to remove the existing ones and blessing that I can make small overlays just for the labels or full coverage ones.

Same!

I've seen some people on here soak a paper towel with alcohol and rubberband it to the visor to soak it for a little while, but that always seemed too risky to be worth it. I'd probably go with a stickerfab kit instead (I might do the same soon)

I bet if you bought new ones from Ford they come with stickers on there

I've removed prior ones (not on a Bronco) with simple manual peeling as well as with long term (many minutes) exposure to a rag soaked with a solvent. IIRC, I have successfully used acetone and goo-gone (good off, whatever).

When that failed miserably, smudging and staining those on my 4Runner, I just went the low risk route for the Bronco with Stickerfab.

Sticker Fab FTW. I think they sent some extras in case you goof the first application.
While you’re ordering from them check out all their other products. They have some good ones…:I wished I shopped a bit more before I placed my order.
Amber light overlays, fuse box id charts, emblem blackout….they have some great stuff. Stuff that shipping envelope.

You may remove the printed label material, but that adhesive won't be coming off easily.

The adhesve is a C9 resin (usually an isohexane-base) designed to bond (aka 'partially dissolve') into the visor polymer fabric. A heat press is used to activate the label adhesive. Thus the pressed-in appearance.

The heat press is what messes up the fabric. Scour all you want, however you want - it's not going to look pretty like the rest of the fabric.

Like they said above - easiest solution is a sticker over it.

Over time your brain will stop seeing it - it knows the label is there and doesn't need cognitive recognition anymore. Kind of like being married for 20+ years.

I have done it.

I do not recommend it. The glue absolutely does not come off without destroying the plastic

100% Get the stickers.

Stickerfab overlays. They send two sets.

Another vote for StickerFab. I originally got some off Amazon and they curled immediately.

I've now had the StickerFab ones for over a year and they are perfect.

Less offensive maybe?
