Door Jam Data Decal Removal??
Application is a '73 F250 CS, not that it really matters.
I want to remove, save the blue decal that is below the striker post on the driver door jam. There is a clear coating of some kind that covers and extends about 1/4" outside the decal. Anyway to save this decal? Or do I just mask and paint? All trim, glass and doors removed so far in preparation for paint.

It will be easier to try to save it ...If it is paper , you may want to use drywall (painters tape (Blue))

You cannot save those stickers. I have tried numerous approaches to them. The guy I worked for also worked at a Ford Dealership and found out that the stickers were designed to self destruct if attempts were made to remove them. This was to prevent VIN# theft to put on rebuilt vehicles. I would take pictures of it first, and go to a dealership with your title work and ask them if it can be remade. (its been years since I had to do one) If not, I would carefully mask it off and paint around it.
