Title: Another shout for Sail help, please.
Post by: old man on July 09, 2020, 10:41:52 am

Does anyone have a fairly safe way of removing old sail numbers?
Any proven solvents?



Needing to re number an IOM, not sure of sail material but maybe Mylar or derivative and has a bit of age?


Thanks for looking.

try warming the area up with a hairdryer, you may find they peel off. nemesis
