My cabinet came with 12"x18" shield shaped Tecmo sticker that I'd like to try and get off. Every time I try to peel it off, it just brakes off in little flakes. Is there an easy way to remove a 20 year old sticker from painted wood?

Heat gun, or if you don't have that, a hair dryer.

I used a hair dryer and a flathead screwdriver. Once the sticker was off I used goo gone to remove the glue. It took a while but the results were worth it.
HERE
is a more detailed explanation. Don't forget to wear gloves.
