    I bought a BMX Mongoose a week ago and it's covered in stickers. I want to get the stickers off without scraping them off and scratching the metal. Any suggestions?

    Hair dryer, or a chemical stripper.

    Thay make a product that will loosen them. try a auto paint supply place. or a body shop might know where you can get some. I have used WD40 and a heat gun on low to take some of the race car.

    Def. try the hair dryer first. Easy trick that has worked well for me on many of Jeeps. I've tried Goo be Gone with limited luck.
