We have just purchased a caravan and the cris sticker in the front side window is half peeled off and won't stick back on and it has left a horrible residue I cant seem to remove. Please could anyone tell me

A - can I buy a new sticker to replace the one I am about to remove

B - How to remove the residue

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thank you in advance.

I raised this question recently. See HERE

It's horrible stuff that gets left behind by the Cris sticker. The only stuff that shifted it for me was 'Stick Stuff Remover' as Grampian91 suggested above.

Thats great, thank you. Did you use the spray or gel remover? There seems to be several 'sticky stuff' removers on the market, not sure which one I should buy.

This is the one that I used, although I think I got it from Ebay.

It's a liquid that you wipe on with a cloth and then leave for a few mins. This CRIS sticker still took a bit of shifting, but nothing else I tried would touch it.

Here it is on Ebay

Bit of wd40 on a rag will probably work too.

I had the same problem of te CRiS sticker coming off and leaving a glue mess... Called CRiS and they charged me £4:80 for a new sticker they also suggested using non carbonate toothpaste to remove the old glue

(Saw in this thread that meths or acetone ( nail varnish remover) was suggested,,, be VERY cautious those dont ruin the plastic window)
