I don't have or want to buy a heat gun.
Any suggestions to get old registration stickers off?
TIA

Yep. Plastic paint scraper (maybe 2) and a 1500W blow dryer and you’re ready for anything. Maybe

Just put the new one over the old one, being careful to match edges.

I think I have 3 or 4 stuck on top of each other. I need to add another this year but I think I'll remove them all and start fresh. There getting kinda thick. Oh, yes The hair dryer will do the trick.

I usually wait a few years putting one on top of the other , year after year. Then I use a razor blade to lift an edge or two and then I am able to take it off by hand. If the sticker tears, then I just use the razor blade again.

If you put 3-4 on top of each other, pulling 2-3 together is a lot easier. I found that the multiple layers add strength to pulling them off and there is less chance of tearing.
