Help removing label from reproduction case

[Phillip Carr]

I would like to know if anyone has removed a label from a reproduction case without damaging the felt?
Any help is appreciated.

I would try a heat gun but don't get it too hot, the label may melt. Then start on one end and use a paint stick to keep the felt from pulling with the label. Work slowly so not to tear or Strech the felt. There will be old glue that will not come off with the label and cannot be removed and will be visible unless the new label covers it. I have seen some that was removed with no issues left behind....good luck. SXS Ohio

Thank you Kenny.

Just paste a new one on top of it. Billy

Thank you for this suggestion. Unfortunately the label I want to install is considerably smaller.

If it were me I would probably replace the "felt".
There are many suppliers and you could most likely match the original.
Removing the label will always show.
