How to remove a sticker?

[erzane]

Id to reproduce the input/output sticker that I didn't succeed to scan entirely. Can I put the whole shell into the water one night to get that sticker off? Maybe is it delicate and all the writings will come off with it?

I would avoid water. Try applying heat to loosen the glue.

You can use a heat gun, on a low setting.
hit it from the front and back, and have it about 7'' to 9'' away from the sticker, being carful use a blade to remove it.

If you backtape the holes, and tape wood around the edge you would most likely get a better scan, you are probibally getting a light/focus issue.

Like its being said, heat and a blade might work.

You might be able to get a good scan, but in the end, you are better off just recreating them in software.
Luckily there are no logos to reproduce, basically all text, and the arrows are easy enough to draw out.
You will get better results and get the label professionally printed and cut out if you want.

No way to have a better scan since the shells leg is going 90 degrees to a dead zone, so the bottom of the sticker is lost.
Ok I'll try with a heater
