Any tips or tricks for sticker removal? (marked NSFW for Nazi-Symbolism)
If it doesnt fit into this community, be so kind and point me in the right direction if possible.
So, in case this post fits here:
This situation has gone on for a few days. Recently a ticket machine here in germany got covered in fascist stickers, showing the flag of Nazi-Germany [Flag of Nazi Germany] and propagating Ideals of the "white-power-movement". I believe the picture speaks for itself. The stickers were removed a few days ago, but returned shortly after. (Picture shows second installment) Today I took some time out of my day to remove them, but it was quite a strenous process. Thats why I came here to ask for any ideas concerning the removal, or general thoughts on the situation. I know that it's an uphill battle, since putting new stickers down is a process of seconds, but it also feels terrible to do nothing. Any help is appreciated!

I know I'm late to the party but for getting labels off jars and bottles I make a paste of baking soda and vegetable oil. Spread it over the label, let it sit for a while, wipe off the paste (save it to reuse), then peel off the label and just use soapy water to wash off the remaining oily adhesive mix. I usually leave it sitting for hours because ADHD so I'm not sure what the shortest sit time is. Because the baking soda is a gentle abrasive and carrier for the oil you can use it to scrub the adhesive off too.
Late doesn't matter ^^
I haven't even checked yet, if there even are new stickers already. Thx for the Idea of course, but it's hard to imagine that I could let it sit for a while, since the stuff is on a vertical surface, will try it anyway.
Time will tell.
Yeah I thought letting it sit might be awkward. I make the paste pretty thick and it generally stays in place without slumping on vertical surfaces. Good luck and keep up the good work!
Making it thicker sounds like a plan! And thanks, I'll try and do my part ;)
