Sorry if this has been asked a hundred times, I couldn't find anything in the search. Looking to remove old Marin decals from an Eldridge Grade. Just looking for an easy clean option?

Thanks

I would use a hairdryer or very carefully a hot air gun to soften them and peel them off . :D

This,

Then clean the residual decal glue off.
 
I normally use baby wet wipes or wd40 to remove any sticky residue left on the frame
 
Hairdryer or warm sunny day, anything more tends to leave more of the glue behind...

Once removed clean off any glue residue with Acetone, this is the most effective, available from chemists, just try a test area first :)
