Default Sticker removal...

I just recently removed some stickers from my '96 kawi standup that were stuck on there pretty damn good. Use a hair dryer and point it at the corner of the sticker you are going to start peeling and heat it up for about 30 seconds. Then you can gently peel the edge up with your fingernail. Try to pull the stickers off s-l-o-w-l-y so that you leave minimal sticker residue on the jet ski. Once you have your stickers off, use a product like Goo-Gone (I used xerox brand 'film remover' from work and it took the residue off perfectly) and apply it to whatever was left behind after the stickers were removed. A couple of wipes should take care of it

Pinstripe eraser wheel.

Doing exactly as adam has posted I've removed decals of an entire ski in just under an hour!

Yup, that works excellent, but for those of you without a heatgun, a $10 can of Aircraft brand decal remover works wonders. Can be picked up at your local auto parts supply.
