I have tried WD40, alcohol, lacquer thinner, and a heat gun set as hot as I have so far dared to apply. None of this has worked so far. The labels have been in place about five years and seem to defy non destructive removal. A fingernail doesn't work either. Help needed--any suggestions?

I'm not surprised that it did the job. What did it do to the finish on your panel?

I mistook James Clive for Jim Crowder. I clearly need to pay closer attention. Please accept my apologies to all.
