Does anyone knows how to put these down, without making the whole laptop sticky mess? Because the fucking alignment makes me inner scream.

    Well @Haxk20 saved my life. After peeling there was still some glue, but the alcohol made it as smooth as a vegans skin..

    Just peel em off and leave them off, they are just ugly marketing material anyway... It's like "wooow ur laptop has HDMI!!!!"... Grays, so does almost every other one...

    i always remove all branding, just peel off and keep 'rolling' the dticky part, eventually its sticks together and done, if a residu is still there, do it later again but dont use solvents

    Use a knife. Not a joke. Those things go off really smooth with a sharp enough knife. Just be careful and don't scratch your laptop though

    Use a safety razor blade and clean it up with some rubbing alcohol

    Compile a Linux kernel. No joke, my laptop's intel sticker fell off due to the heat of my laptop compiling different kernels for hours.

    My old Sony Vaio has a plastic "leather" looking finish and with the heat has almost peeled off. Btw that's a replacement. Can't replace it again though as Sony has stopped making laptops. 😁 To be fair, for an 8 years old laptop, it runs Ubuntu smoothly.

    @Nanos I highly doubt rubbing / isopropyl alcohol isn't allowed where you live even if "alcohol" (I assume you mean hard drinks?) is banned, it's a very useful thing and also has medical/first-aid purposes. Very easy to get at any drug store.

    Heating it should also help peeling it off, then alcohol is great for cleaning!

    @Nanos gasoline or thinner would do just fine

    Solvent, a little isopropyl alcohol on the target surface, apply onto the alcohol, press down allow to dry, wipe down with a little more isopropyl

    I just rip those of and rub my finger on the left over glue to remove the rest it's a long process but it yeild no damage to the surface
