paint/sticker advice help please

[omega]

my mate needs a van and i ve found a good cheap van for him but its owner used to use it as a flower van.now the stickers have been removed but you can still see what they used to say.some of them will be covered up with his signs but there will be a lot that wont,and this is putting him off
so can they be t cutted out or is a respray the only way?
the vans about 7 years old and the signs have been on it from new.
cheers

T Cut and colour buff

Having the car machine polished with a cutting compound [NOT T-CUT] should remove the oxidised paint and rematch the colour to its original shade, which is what you can see where the stickers once were.

yep as above, proper machine polish should sort it no problem, or you mate could go for a digital wrap rather than signs? no need to worry whats underneath then

i can help with a wrap

I cant quite remember what I used to do my old Ventora with something like G3 or G4 cutting compound and an electric mop/ buffer and plenty of water to keep it viscous
