We are currently trying to remove some old stickers from our caravan we just brought so we can put the new stickers on. We got as far as getting the top layer off with a hair dryer and credit card but there are still a fair bit of sticky stuff left on and advice what to use to remove?

Try some white spirit on a rag. You may need to dab it on first and allow it to soak in and then rub it off.

The previous owner of our 2013 Lunar put grotty sticky backed hooks in all sorts of places (wouldn't have minded so much if they'd been on straight!) and I am slowly working through removing them all.

I use a 'Sticky Remover' from HG products. It works absolutely brilliantly but the fumes are absolutely evil - goodness knows what's in it. DO NOT breathe in more than you have to and work in a well ventilated place. And the obvious caveat of try it on an out-of-the-way place first in case it takes off more than you want.

Good luck

Are these exterior emblems?
The adhesive technology is likely to be solvent based, if that is indeed the case then a solvent based adhesive remover should do the job. Please be aware that the remover could damage the paint work lying under the adhesive, the tip is work fast, apply and remove as quick as you can then wash down with soapy water. If on the other hand the adhesive technology is water based then you could try paint brush cleaner designed for solventfree paints. In any case try on a concealed area to make sure no damage is caused to the paint.
good luck

Warm it with an hair dryer, it will melt the glue, or WD40 helps to get them off

As mentioned by Jeff above - Sticky Stuff Remover.

I have a small bottle of this and it is very good stuff and has proved to be very useful over the years.
