really, really fine sandpaper, a block, and water. then use some rubbing compound to take out the fine scratches from the sandpaper.

Piece of cake - Easy-Off oven cleaner will pull it off, no sweat!! Jest rub it on, let it sit, rub off. Won't hurt the OEM paint.

lets say i'm glad it wasn't a tattoo

no it's nothing like that. i'm changing to some hard bags on my classic
and wanted to do something different since i will have quite a bit of room to work with
on the hard bags
