I am recovering a set of fully sheeted wings. The insignia blue had to be heated and pulled off when I did this it left a blue residue . What is the best way to remove this residue.

Thanks for your input. I' ve found that acetone works very well. You have to do it a little at a time so it does not saturate through the balsa and damage the foam underneath. Then lightly sand it. I finished one wing panel and it came out very well. No imperfections show through the new monokote.

Try CA Debonder - that has worked well for me to remove monokote adhessive in the past from on top of monokote. Not sure how well that will work on top of balsa ...
