Abstract
Vinyl decals are removed from a painted surface without damaging the painted surface by contacting the decal with a composition consisting essentially of one or more of the following aromatic solvents: toluene, xylene and aromatic naphtha; and methyl ethyl ketone or a mixture of glycol ethers. The composition may optionally contain a thickener. The composition remains in contact with the decal for a time sufficient to loosen the decal from the surface and then the decal is physically pulled from the surface.
