  • Decal removal apparatus and method
    Patent number: 6818069

The applicator has a plate having a seal connected to the bottom portion of the plate defining a cavity therein. An outlet communicates steam from a conduit into the cavity when to cavity is placed against the decal area. The low pressure steam moisturizes the adhesive connecting the decal to the vehicle so that the decal may then be relatively easy removed from the vehicle mechanically or otherwise.
