Removing graphics/ decals

[Phengren Oswald]

Anyone have any experience with removing decals from pedals?
Specifically, the EHX nano series...
Any suggestions for doing this without removing the guts?

Kind of a ridiculous project but, eh, you know aesthetics.....

Nail polish remover and a paint scraper. I stripped an LPB a few years ago.

acetone.

Baby oil is surprisingly good too. And sometimes a blowdryer to soften the adhesive first.

Cool.
I was thinking blow-dryer, then lighter fluid or goo-gone...

Wanted to see if anyone had any tried and true techniques.

Acetone, dude.
Nail polish remover is the same thing.
But if you get Acetone from the hardware store, it'll be more effective.
It's also just useful to have around the house.
It'll remove most paints with ease.

Just don't use it on plastic, it'll tear it up!
Also don't breathe the fumes too much, it evaporates readily at room temp.

No joke about the fumes thing. I was soldering a few weeks ago and didn't properly ventilate. I was a zombie the next day.

Covert EHX? Ask Behn.

Turns out all you need is nail polish remover, a rag and about 10 minutes.
