To All,
I found the truly best way to remove the lettering,numbers in my case,is with sanding paper.
On the 5161s the paint isn't affected much while on the 4750s it sometimes took the paint down to or close to the grey. I've changes all numbers on 1 5161,but found the end car numbers almost IMPOSSIBLE to do a good job on,when adding the new dry transfers as far as proper alighnment.
Future plans for renumbering are to change only a few numbers. This is noticeable as the dry transfer is a wider & darker number,but hardly noticeable when walking by the car. I applied dry transfers over the existing numbers on 1 car and that works a lot better for a guide but it also costs a lot to do 25 cars that way in the price of decals. So for now,I will change only what's necessary.
I use 3M 320 grade sandpaper to remove the decals. Hope this helps.
Merry Christmas to all.
