What is the best way to remove decals without damage from a plastic ramp?
Thanks

I use Naptha and take my time slowly peeling off the decal as the Naptha softens the glue. You can then use Naptha to remove the old glue and use the 3M tape to reinstall.

I freeze them off using upside down compressed air duster spray. Once it is good and frosted, get a corner and it will come right off. Then clean with alcohol and re-glue with the 3M stuff from pinrestore.com.

They are in bad shape and i have replacements so just need to get them off. Thanks

If you are replacing them I would do freeze spray as well.

I've used the method in the link below to remove and reapply many decals.

Goo Gone to remove and clean the decal. Then 3M 467MP to reapply.
