3rd Rail brass freight car decal/artwork removal?

Wish you were closer I would switch the trucks and trade you for that one…I am not crazy about this company name but I love the car.

Try 91% or 100% isopropyl alcohol on the underside of the car first, just in case.

I guess it all depends on what the used to seal the decals. If anything. If it’s clear coated it’s pretty tough to get them off without re painting. I removed most of the lettering from a factory lettered Precision Scale car using Scotch tape. Just applied it over it and burnished it in. I got most of it off. I was giving it a fresh coat of paint anyways so the last few bits that remained I took off with a very fine scuff pad.

@taycotrains  I would do that, but something about this lettering just screams at me.  Off topic--what truck is in the background of your profile pictures? 50's Ford F100?  I have a 65 Chevy C10.

@CBQer  Good idea.  I will have to see if I have some.  I used to, but we moved cross country and left most liquids behind.

@Dave_C  I forgot about scotch tape.  I will try it if all else fails.  I may repaint the entire car black anyway...if the paint comes off...repaint it is!
