Suggestions Need to remove and replace about 40 10" reflective numbers from glass

jtiii

I paid good money for you to read this!
Exterior. They've been on for at least five years. I've got stainless razor blades and rapid remover, but I wasn't sure if there were any tips to speed up the process. Also will just alcohol clean up the rapid remover residue enough to apply new vinyl right away?

Thanks in advance y'all!

Depending on the temperature of the glass/outside, heat is always to way to go for a clean removal. But not too hot as it could crack the glass.

Sounds like a tough removal.

Reflective can be a bear to get off on a truck, never removed reflective on glass.

Using heat on glass is a bad idea.

Get a 4 inch razor scraper and spray the decals down with soapy water so it slides easily when pushing them up.

Charge accordingly for your time and risk of breaking the glass…

Isopropyl will remove rapid remover before new graphics are applied just use new paper towels constantly so you not smearing it around.

You probably won’t need rapid remover, the razor should be able to handle the adhesive.
