How to Replace Lettering on a Range Rover
Replacing the vinyl lettering on a Range Rover can be done without too many headaches with a few common household materials and a little skill. Removing the vinyl lettering will allow you to easily replace the original Range Rover lettering with whatever you may want to put on the vehicle.
Instructions
- 1
Saturate a cotton ball with rubbing alcohol.
2Rub the alcohol saturated cotton ball over each vinyl letter you want to remove from the Range Rover. Make sure that as you do this you thoroughly coat each vinyl letter with alcohol. The alcohol will either eat away at the vinyl or the glue underneath, allowing you to remove the lettering.
3Scrape each letter off using the scraping knife caully so that you do not damage the paint on the vehicle. It will help to have an alcohol saturated cotton ball with you as you do this because it may be necessary to re-saturate each letter with alcohol as you are scraping it off.
4Rub an alcohol-saturated cotton ball over the area where all of the lettering was, cleaning up any glue residue that may remain. This will prepare the area for placing new graphics or lettering on the vehicle.
5Measure the area that you wish to place the new vinyl letters or graphics.
6Measure the vinyl graphics or lettering and make sure that they will fit in the area that you wish to place them.
7Tape with masking tape the top of the graphics or lettering to the top of the area on the vehicle you want to place the new graphics or lettering.
8Peel off the backing on the vinyl letters or graphics that you wish to place on the vehicle.
9Rub the letters or graphics into place with the squeegee. The glue on the letters or graphics will attach them to the vehicle.
10Rub alcohol caully with a cotton swab over any excess glue leaking out under the edges of the letters or graphics.
