Solitude Logo On Windshield
So, we LOVE our Solitude 374TH. However, I don't love the stick on logo that is pasted on the windshield (this model has a front salon with a beautiful windshield to look out of). The logo obstructs my view and I really don't care if anyone is impressed with the name. This thing is coming off ... I know that a razor blade and some Goo Gone will do it, but I'm wondering if anyone has found an easier way (heat, solvents, etc). I don't want to do anything hat will damage the windshield.

A hair dryer or heat gun on low, and plastic razor blades should do the trick. You may need goo-gone for any remaining glue from the decal.

Body shops use some kind of wheel on a drill or grinders that takes decals off. Not sure if that could be used here or not.
Maybe ask a local body shop or such.

Yep.... I'll be watching this thread, as we take delivery of our 2019 380 FL this coming Saturday and I can tell you that pesky decal has been on my mind.
Our lot faces the lake and it'd be much nicer to look out the window and see the lake without the decal being in the way.

Scheduled to take delivery of our 380FL on Saturday, so I was over at the dealer and made certain the PDI tech knew that we wanted the decal off.... He felt pretty certain that since it was new, that he could get it off with maybe a little persuasion from a blow dryer.... I'll update my findings on Saturday evening, when we get her back to our winter home here in Fort Myers.
As a side note, the folks here at Palm RV in Fort Myers have been a dream to work with so far.... We stopped by yesterday to drop off a couple towel bars and met Jamie, our PDI tech and he was ever so ready to answer any questions we had.
I am told to expect about a three hour PDI tour, but even Jamie said that "depends" on my comfort level.

Forgot to update my findings from the windshield decal....
I'm not sure whether it was because it was a brand new unit, but on Saturday morning the PDI guys got on ladders and were able to simply peel the
decals off... It was interesting to see that each letter was a separate decal.
The good news is that.... we have an unobstructed view of the lake from the front window.

Sounds good. Curious question....that floor plan shows a TV in front of that window. Is it on a televator so it can be lowered to allow you to look out?
We have a nice window behind our televator TV but haven't used it yet.2019 Solitude 384GKR
