cschannuth 3,817 #3 Posted July 1, 2020 Simple green works well on almost anything. I would spray it on and let it sit for a few minutes and wipe it off with a towel and see what you have. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AMC RULES 37,211 #6 Posted July 1, 2020 No, you would have to be trying to remove it. Just pay attention to the amount of removal you desire. Then stop. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WVHillbilly520H 10,376 #7 Posted July 1, 2020 This is very good compound... I tried it on the hood decals of the 414-8 where the PO had primer overspray... Took off the overspray and didn't hurt the decal what so ever... https://www.walmart.com/ip/Meguiar-s-DA-Microfiber-Correction-Compound-Auto-Compound-Removes-Surface-Defects-D30016-16-oz/28656616... Bought mine locally at a car paint supplier. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Agreed...and maybe try it on the back or the side you wouldn’t face out if it was on a display shelf 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
