Yeah I had a bad morning.....

Our underage teenage neighbors boinking in our yard at night
makes for great breakfast conversations with her parents.
Thank God I don't have to deal with the fallout............

On to the plastic ......

Take a heat gun and warm the plastic locally to about 150ish.
This will remelt the glue holding the paper to the plastic and
leave you with squeaky clean plastic to work with. The glue used
is a low temp thermoset not a solvent based glue so liquids really
just get in the way and get sucked into the sheet to crreate problems later.
Acrylic doesn't get imprintable until 225 with pressure and won't move
until around
250 if forced so you won't have any problems peeling it off. Don't
worry about this temp inducing any residual stresses in the plastic,
I've done this a bunch when I'm working with some old crappy paper sheeted
material and it always comes off perfectly when reheated a bit..........

Hope that sounded a bit better......

Scott.

Why haven't any of you guys read the DIRECTIONS on
how to remove the old stuff. Pop it in the oven, warm it to about 160F
and it comes off slick as snot. Forget solvents, water or any of that
other crap, just check the manufacturers recommendations.

Oh Yeah, I mold Acrylic for a living.

Gee Scott, have a bad morning?

As I recall, the original poster does not have the instructions from the
manufacture (the paper is old, faded, and dried on), let alone an oven
that
large.
