Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

    Hey guys,

    I finally decided to take my black racing stripes off the car as i was getting sick of them. I heated the sticker up and it came loose straight away, however it was a **** quality sticker and now has peeled up my clearcoat on roof and bonnet Do you guys think its worth having a panelbeater have a look at it and re-clearcoat it if possible or just put another stripe over it? Im am on a budget and dont have too much to spend at the moment Here some pics:





    Tell me what you think! Cheers, Stefan

    I think the whole car will have to be rubbed back and re clear coated. You could try to polish up the part where the clear coat is missing, it will be less noticable that way untill you have the funds to re-clear coat the car.

      Did you try giving it a cut/polish/wax, maybe that'll help

        clear coat issue

        If you are on a tight budget why not just leave it until you can afford to get it re cleared. Short of fixing it properly or fresh stickers (both of which cost money) it sounds like living with it for the short term might be a good option.
