hey guys, i got an old pair of s3s in selling, but the buyer wants the stickers removed. i was wondering if rubbing alcohol does a good job, and if it damages the skis

Use butter, works like a dream! Take a bit of butter, rub it to the stickers, let it be there for few mins and then just scratch them off with your finger nail. If it doesn't come all of, just put a bit of more butter.

Yes, rubbing alcohol, isopropyl or nail varnish remover removes sticker residue best.
