    I just bought some hair clippers ... so no need for hair dryer in my life.
    However, not much good at removing decals.

    Got any other really clever suggestions? How about "Borrow a hairdryer"?

    You don't know any girlies, or are you just too shy to ask?

    /me borrows hairdryer about 3 times a year to defrost the freezer.

    What about volatile hydrocarbons sold for removing other organic stuff?

    Meet some nice girl, chat her up, take her out a couple of times, really
    get to know her; and when she's learnt to like and trust you, steal her
    hairdryer.

    Well, you did ask... :-p

    No hairdryer? Just peel the frame off and leave the stickers.

    Maybe I could just leave the frame in the sink?

    The frame is around a friend's house, who is on holiday and I need to feed
    their cat. Only have access to his garden and want to remove the decals
    later today. So, no electricity and no hairdryer.

    Really this is starting to get silly 🙂 Its like asking how to build a
    brick wall without access to mortar or bricks! Sticky stuff remover
    works, as does heat. You cant make heat (in a controlled enough way)
    without elec so go with sticky stuff remover. Otherwise try a brillo
    pad but dont expect the frame to look nice after!

    Normally it's the neighbours job to feed the cat. I think they've fallen out
    !
