These removal instructions are provided so that you can quickly and easily remove any DansDecals skin, leaving your gaming system looking like new. These instructions work best if you have not previously attempted other means of removal.
All of the skins we sell can be completely removed without damaging your game system.
Non-Chrome Colors
Regular, non-chrome colors remove cleanly and easily at any time. Simply start in a corner and peel away slowly. Once the skin is completely removed, use a soft rag to clean the surface, leaving your game system like new.
Chrome Colors
Chrome skins (including chrome colors) will leave some residue behind when they are peeled off, but it too can be very easily removed without damaging the surface of your game system. The slower you remove a chrome skin, the less residue is left behind. Any adhesive residue that is left behind can easily be removed using either a roll of clear shipping tape (3M brand works best) or a wide roll of masking tape (doesn't work as well). Take a piece of tape and apply it to the area where adhesive remains, just like if you were applying a skin. Press it very firmly down all over using a hard, rigid object such as a squeegee, then slowly peel it back off. The adhesive will stick to the tape and will come off your game system as you peel the tape off. This may need to be repeated a couple times to remove all of the adhesive. If there are any difficult spots that do not want to come off, press the tape down very firmly and then peel it off again very slowly. You may also use a large white eraser to remove any stubborn areas and small spots that remain.
*** Using adhesive removers and/or alcohol products to remove the adhesive is not recommended. Most of them just smear the adhesive, making removal more difficult, and some may even melt the faceplate.
*** IMPORTANT *** Our skins are not reusable once removed. Should you decide you once again want the skinned look we would be happy to sell you a new one.
