Shaving "Leer" Off My Cap

Does anyone have any tricks for shaving the "Leer" letters off the glass of my topper? I tried picking them a little with my finger nails, and those sucks are on there! Any tricks or tips are appreciated. Thanks!

Little heat wouldn't hurt either.

Mine peeled right off with my fingers, the first day I got it home. I didn't care for the big letters on the back window at all. Try a plastic bondo spreader and hair dryer if there stubborn, followed up by some bug and tar remover. Good luck.

WD-40 takes off stickers rather well. Then clean up with good cleaner afterwards. ELBOW GREASE may be needed

Rip it off by hand. Soak the area with windex and use a razor blade to get rid of any adhesive left. They are in there good, but they are just decals. The hardest part is getting it off in the first place.

Just use a razor blade , small decals like that come off easier cold, the colder the better, it makes them very fragile, and they come off alot easier. I remove lettering from class 8's at work all the time , and this is the easiest way.
