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

Thanks, acetone helps too.
Graham Bantocks advice at sailset2.com is very helpful.
All solved now thanks.
