How would you Remove?

I would tell them it will have to be stripped and repainted if he wants it to look right.

If they want to move forward and are not worried, I would get alot of rapid remover, soy degreaser, and elbow grease and get to it.

 

You could print/mount to aluminum/ACM panels and epoxy glue to the trailer if he's willing to pay for the labor of removal.

 

What 2CT said!

 

In the process of doing quite a few of these right now. Mostly 30 & 40 yarders. They took them and had them sandblasted and then repainted. I'm not about to do bodywork, detail work or anything else except letter a truck. If someone got a trailer cheap, because it's used and no one bothered to take the lettering off, that's not my concern....... not on a dump trailer. After one use, they're all boogered up. Who cares ??

 

i wouldn't bother with the "proper way" to do this, eraser wheel will grind up the painted finish, as would any scraper tools, and any of the "cover-up" paint remaining would make it look like as scuffed-up mess anyways.

+1 to using ACM panels getting more bang-for-buck than elbow grease & heartache

 

i think it would look cheap as one giant-panel, idk. dealer's choice here i guess.

larger panel = easier layout for graphics.
smaller panels = subtle touch-up, but more work.

 

You ain't gonna get rivets to hold. You'll probably need to weld it fast. Therefore, there goes ACM out the window..... right into the dumpster.

 

you will never make enough money on this (time and materials to remove) - to do it the RIGHT way bring it to a body shop have them strip it and repaint - then you do your thing!
OR
make a new black panel to cover the area - screw it on - then letter it

 

We have done these with 4mm acm panels, attached with vhb, adhesive and screws to the uprights

 

Nah, rivets are okay just can't use the wimpy ones. Did a dump trailer with ACM panels. Client said it's going to get hammered. Welded structure between the vertical ribs then attached panels with Lexel and 3/16" diameter x 5/8" head stock car panel rivets.
