removing decals

how do I remove decals from plastic vehicle shell, so i can repaint to a different color?

it’s microscoll blue bottle after 99% alchol to strip the paint. use the first to take off the first. rambo1…

I usually use non-acetone nail polish remover.

work good?

Usually. Sometimes I come across a decal that has a heavy layer of flat coat on it but most times the decal breaks up and can be removed quickly.

what about paint

If left too long it could take the paint off. Being as he’s talking about repainting it that shouldn’t be a problem. I just recently used it on a Stewart Baldwin AS16 to remove the cab number. Took a little scrubbing with a paper towel but the number came right off in under thirty seconds. Didn’t appear to have harmed the paint.
