    Well here we are again. Kicking up an old dead thread.
    I got the kingpins done and my rig is DOT legal now..but still needs lettering.

    So, I went around the gamut and hit 3 or 4 shops that I had talked to back in October. (email/vmail)
    Maybe NOW, during the winter...someone will get back with me.

    How do u remover vinyle lettering
    I tried to remove it with heat gun. It worked on the tractor but didn't on the trailer because the vinyle was too thin. Anyone here know of any chemicals?

    you can buy a whell--its made of a rubber kinda like an eraser--goes on a drill and it rubs off the decal--then you just wipe off whats left of the glue with acetone or similiar
    a heat gun should take off decal easy if it is thin--sure it isnt paint?

    I finally have a place I signed up with. It is really close to my home (and the dealer..since my truck lives there).
    They are working on samples this week.

    Finally I got someone that -wants- to work....he does awesome stuff too.

    I will likely do either 'power only' or contract as needed. I won't be leasing on with anyone...

    Oh you bet. Once she is done I will certainly post photos. I think my ideas will be really cool. By the way, that guy in Northern IL dropped off the face of the earth. Only this one guy I am working with bothered to return my calls/emails...
