Default RE: Removing decals


ORIGINAL: old n slow

I am getting a GP Big Stick40 but don't want the iron crosses. How can I remove them without damages to the underlaying covering. I will replace them with other decals

Then peal back the edge of a cross, and apply the heat gun to the area you are about to peal back.

Work slowly.

I then did an identical colorscheme in G3/G4... which looks like this...
