Has anyone successfully removed the printed Zipp impress decals off their wheels? The newer style decals, not the vinyl stickers.
Mine are chipping and rather unsightly, and would like to take them off completely but unsure of which way to go about it
Any help would be appreciated

Are you talking about the etched NSW decals? If not, I would just use hair dryer and then remove the remaining residue with goof off. I've removed residue from my Campy Bora's, Enve ses, and Stans MB wheels using that method.

What? Impress logos/artwork are laser-etched and don’t peel/scrape off. Only NSWs and Super-9s have Impress graphics. You have regular decals on your Firestrikes. Strong isopropyl alcohol and patience IMO.

it's not a one piece vinyl sticker, and if you had seen me try to scrape off the rest of my chipped logo with my fingernail you'd understand my frustration
i got through the tip of the "P" after 15min
