*Anyone Try Removing Auto from Helmet Before?*

[94ware]

Just wondering if anybody has every tried to remove an autograph from a minihelmet before. And if so how did it go for you?

I have. Use nail polish remover and it works just fine. As long as it's just 1 auto on a helmet and not a group of autos because as you are wiping the ink does smear until it comes all the way off.

Hello,
Goof Off works well also but have a damp cloth to wipe the spot once the ink is gone to take off the chemical residue.

axe body spray works great.

If the auto is in Sharpie they actually make a Sharpie remover pen. It isn't made by Sharpie but it works awesome. I think it uses acetone which is nail polish remover so you may try it.

I recommend trying it on a non-visible spot first because I have seen acetone melt certain types of plastic and it also takes off paint, so be careful.

i had somebody tell me they used the paste type of tooth paste before. never tried it myself though

dont have to answer but just wondering why you would want to take an auto off?

oh you can ask ha. I went to some training camps awhile back such as the eagles, bills, and giants since I live in New York. And some of the minihelmets I have include players that turned out well and some that didn't. For example, I have a eagles helmet with 25 Scott Ware/27 Quintin Mikell/37 Sean Considine and was thinking about removing considine and ware. Hugh Douglas is also on the mini though and he was a good player for a while.

Thank You for all the responses. I have had a friend try Goo Gone awhile back but the ink never fully came out thats why I am a bit hesitant.
