removing graphics from decks

[Paco Supreme]

There is actually a thing called ‘paint stripper’ which works really well for this, I assume it’s along the same lines as using acetone but maybe a bit stronger

some of those are caustic as fuck, if you go that route use the citrus based ones. ive seen plys come unstuck from using the more heavy duty ones

would turps/brush cleaner work or do you reckon it'd just fuck it?

Having done this in the past when riding a different board to what I was "supposed" to be I found this was the best way to do it without fucking anything, so yeah...

Chuck some Acetone into an old spray bottle, set it so its spraying more of a mist than spray, spray onto a cloth and start rubbing it into the graphic.

YOU DONT SPRAY IT ONTO THE DECK, look we know its going to do the job quicker, but the problem is that it can also fuck the glues.

Once the graphics off, do what you want to it and coat it in salba sauce.

Or you can just cover the graphic with stickerz

cheers for the advice fella. i love my local shops deck/shape/etc but the graphics are just awful.

if you have seen breaking bad, which I know you already have, there is no reason to be asking this question.

Nah having a wack graphic throws off my skating. It's like having the wrong kit on, that shit's for me and if I'm not hyped on it the shoes aren't hyped, and they do all the skating.

youre not a real skater if you think that graphics affect your skating.
