The best way, paint. I've never gotten sticker ghosts to go away, all the color that wasnt covered by the sticker is permanently lighter due to UV fading.

Not what I wanted to hear. I've had the cart for a few weeks and just did notice it. Barely noticeable. I'm going to try Meguiars ultimate rubbing and polishing compound. 🤞

If it's just some residual glue, you can probably polish it out. Unfortunately, the surrounding plastic has suffered UV fading and where the stickers were has not been exposed to the same UV damage. I have had several that were only fixed with paint. I know not what you wanted to hear, but it was my reality.

Well, I think I got lucky and what I saw was mostly residue. Used a DA orbital tool with turtle wax rubbing compound followed by Meguiars polish. Took the numbers off each side and most importantly made the word "Jayhawk" disappear🤘😝🤘. Thought I might have to sell for a minute. 😁😂😝
