87 GMC,
I agree with 70chevc10. On our company demo trucks, we change the graphics usually about every 12-18 months. I have used a 3M eraser wheel or "banana" wheel about times and it sure beats the finger nail or adhesive remover options. I picked mine up at the local NAPA. Be sure to read the instructions included and use a low speed drill.
