Thanks for all the suggestions. Just thought I would get back to you all. After removing the decals with heat gun and plastic scrapper, the remaining glueshadow wa attacked with several methods that were suggested. Gloo-gone was the least effective. The easiest technique was the oven cleaner. I lso tried
some other glue removing products, simple green and acetone.
Now, next weekend I will apply the new ones using the soapy water spray technique that was suggested.
I will try to post some pics. The boat looks great!!
Thanx for all the help
