Hi welcome to a two-minute tech Tip: What do you do if you've got a product that you want to open up and have a look inside and well, why the hell wouldn't ya? But it's got one of these pesky warranty void if remove stickers, one of these holographic things which if you're trying their design. so if you try and not peel them off, they parts of them a left behind and they stickin and you can't reapply them. That's their purpose. There are security stickers.

How do you get one of these puppies off so you can have a play around inside? put it back so that no one's any wiser? Well let me show you what I'm going to do is get some static shielding nutbag like this which is pretty slippery art type material like this and try and get it under there. and if you do it slowly and carefully enough, you might be able to release the glue if you get in there to shallow enough angle with a a non sticky type slippery material like this and you can pretty much peel it away intact. you can see that I'm almost yeah. but it's quite tricky with having this foot over here and here we go.

I Do believe I am in like Flynn Errol that is I could tape that back or something carefully and we could should be able to repeal that sticker later. Beauty that Tada! There you go and we have resembled our product and look at that looks like a bought one. What a Bobby Dazzler works A treat. No one will suspect the thing that you're inside having a play.

so I hope you found that useful. Give it a try next time. Catch you next time.

    I actually managed to remove the sticker on my phone by just peeling it off and putting some oil on the metal residue and letting it sit for a minute. I might try this next time if the oil method doesn't work.

    I would have thought that would have ruined it for sure & would have tried a heat gun.

    I have personal experience with those Siglent scope stickers, I used my fingernail and managed to peel up just enough sticker to allow my tweezers to peel the sucker off. It left no residue, and the sticker is unharmed, so if I need any warranty service, I just put the sticker back on.

    They found ever better ways of pissing me off, ""lets make non flexible sticker that cracks easily, and then put them on multiple screws that are in recessed hole."

    I'm trying to remove a paper warranty label and stick it on something else.

    You don't need to do that if you are in the US, you can just rip it out without the blade.

  17. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars schwinnbiking says:

    Maybe heat gun to make glue softer

    All those people complaining about the warranty stickers is the same people that buy an item then they open it to remove the good parts and replace them with their own damaged parts then claim for a warranty.

    Freezer spray. Freeze the sticker good & cold & the glue turns stiff.
