Jay123 0 Posted June 24, 2010 Whats a safe and easy way to remove the sticker at the back of your rolex? It seems pretty tough to get off and i dont want to damage the watch, thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
greg_r 84 Posted June 24, 2010 Can't say I've tried too hard. Some come off on their own after a while - others seem to be stuck on there for ever. Chances are that if you can get it started, a little lighter fluid on a cloth will get the rest of it off - albeit with some effort... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fakemaster 0 Posted June 24, 2010 Get the edge up on each side with your fingernail. Then rub in one direction and the other alternate so the goo doesn't get into the ridges. Once it comes off use acetone on the goo that is left. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Baldrick 1 Posted June 25, 2010 Sandpaper or grinding wheel will take it off Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Luthier 1 Posted June 25, 2010 You all wrong. It could be removed with hammer and chisel only. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Killasam 0 Posted June 25, 2010 i think if you leave it in a bowl or cup of hydrochloric acid.. that should just about do the trick Let me know how you get on Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
trailboss99 997 Posted June 25, 2010 Personally I prefer a cup of napalm. I find this most effective and gives the added benefit of instant vintageising thereby increasing it's RG re-sale potential and value by aprox 1,000,000 percent. If the napalm method really isn't you I suggest the Fakemaster method above. Col. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
