Paul, to be safe I will use soap  :daumenhoch:

duncan:
I'd never considered it could be corrosive, good tip, I missed it above.

Maybe washing up liquid could dull paintwork underneath a sticker too over a long period of time?
I'll take a note of that, I used to do van signage and will mention it to the guys I worked with.
Got visions now of people removing stickers and the paint is a different shade underneath.
The concentrations I used were so low hopefully it wasn't a problem on paint  :-\

David:
Washing up liquid contain's salt - that is the corrosive element.
One drop ain't gonna do shit.
Just don't wash your feckin' car with it, okay?

David:
In the past, car restorers have used NEAT washing up liquid to ease on windsreen rubbers /grommets etc.
Few years down the road, it all all rots out. Think that's where the story's originate.

stuntmaster:
well one drop will do damage as it` still salt  content and you telling me that when you put your stickers on ,the water will not contain traces of salt ,may be it will know that you are putting your stickers on and not go near
