What do people recommend to remove paint/sprayed on logos to standard hex flight case walls? Any magic elixir which cuts it off without marking the panels?

Looks like gunwash typically contains toluene so just be careful with it if you go that route, not the nicest solvent.

I use a diesel jet wash.

If your in Frome pop over my yard and use mine if you need.

Nitromores will get the paint off, but it’s cleaning in the million little gaps.

If you ever have the option to thrown Gun wash on a car to see the paint basically dissolve it’s very satisfying.

Recommend a scrap car.....

still need to collect those mic stands we bought! Pregnancy going into lockdown meant i never made it West to come see you. Asked Luke to grab them if he sees you but seems that hasn't happened either. Not like there's any events which need them currently though....

cheers for the tips everyone, will start with water, and work my way up the scale. Have access to some industrial machines in the village.
