I had the same problem some years ago. My sailmaker told me to take a
razor
blade and work at lifting the numbers/logos off and then take acetone to
remove the embedded adhesive. Well I started the job but I gave up
within
15 mins. I took the sail in and they removed all numbers/logos.

I bought a used sail that had stick-on sail numbers. Before putting on

new

numbers, I would like to remove the adhesive residue from the sail.
Does
anyone have a suggestion as to what to use to remove the glue without
damaging the sail?
