Default Glider Numbers and letters

Ron Gleason wrote:
I just got my first glider and want to personalize it. I have seen
where I can buy vinyl letters from commercial sites at reasonable
prices. However I am wondering if I can have these letters made at a
local 'sign' shop? What thickness of vinyl should be used? What is
the best way to remove the existing letters? Any other issues I should
be aware of?

Thanks in advance

Ron

Local sign shop letters are just fine. I don't think the thickness is
critical.

To remove the old ones...

Vinyl...Hair dryer.
Enamel or laquer...acetone
Epoxy paint...happy sanding
