Hi everyone, here from Fitchburg, MA

Hi all, here I am introducing myself, and asking for some help.
I've been doing heat transfer and vinyl on t-shirts for some time now, then a few weeks ago I started screen printing, and now someone asked me if I could make a store sign, well, I already have a vinyl cutter, some experience printing vinyl in t-shirts, so I said to myself why not?
The sign has the old vinyl with the name of the old business, and I am having some difficulties to peel it off, any recommendation as how to remove the old (it is not very old by the way) vinyl?

Thank you:signs101:

I would go with a heat gun (hair dryer if you don't have access to one) and rapid remover - which will remove the stickiness.

Welcome from OK.
Heat gun and remover, If it is a plastic sign face you will need to use some vinegar to get rid of the yellowing.
