My guess is removing tax stickers on empty cigarette packs to then affix them on non-taxed smokes. As far as what to do, using the iron seems good.

If I say the kind of work I do, is not even close from your assumption you are manking.
Also I choose to not say about my work because it is something personal and I only choose the things you need only to know.
Finally, don't call someone chickensh*t if you don't have enough informations, like you said already.
I need a way to remove intact small paper stickers in under 1 minute or less.
This actually look very helpfull indeed. I didn't knew this kind of tools exist.Skaven252 said:
Maybe I will buy one to help all of us.
Thank you for your post.
So why the hell didn't you say so originally? That's the point I'm making. You come here asking for advice and dole out the real information people need a few snippets at a time. In that one sentence you gave us more information than your whole original post.SweetShark said:
I appreciate that I'm making a way bigger deal out of this than I should, but speaking as someone who often has to do technical support, this is the kind of thing that drives me crazy. 'Can you help me please, Website doesn't work!!!!'
Peel them off and restick them where they need to go.
If you want more details, use your nail and start in the corner and make sure you get under the sticky layer and slowly work your way across the sticker. If it starts to rip try another corner or edge.

Thank you all of you for your help!!!
Over and out!!!!

If you need to remove stickers (or decals) from a plastic surface, then there are a few options
1. Plastic razor blade: these work similar to the metal razor blade, though without the possibility of cutting yourself. Both the metal razor and plastic razor blade work well for smaller areas, though are time consuming on bigger jobs
2. Hot air gun or hair dryer: this works well on newer decals (less that 1 year old) and works by melting the adhesive which allows you to peel back the decal. Unfortunately for old baked on decals that have been in the sun, it doesn?t work effectively as the decal would have become brittle and won?t peel off.
(NOTE: be careful when using a hair dryer as it can?t melt or affect the plastic?.)
3. Use Eucalyptus oil to loosen the decal by breaking down the adhesive. This generally works better at removing the adhesive once the sticker has been removed, rather than removing the dcal
I wouldn?t recommend using
1. Metal razor blade (make sure you use a holder). This is a job and easy option and works by getting the metal blade under the decal and scratching off. The down side is the sharp metal blade can lead to people cutting themselves when removing the decal?. No-one wants a bleeding finder
Good luck with the job. Please let me know if we can help your remove decals and stickers ? it?s our whole business! (and yes we love it). We have a few video demo?s at www.decalstickerremover.com
