Does anybody know the best way to remove the big "R-Pod" decal?

I've tried to use a razer blade but it comes off in 1/4" pieces. My cat has scratch it all up trying to get on top.

Have read in past posts of individuals using a hair dryer on the decal which softens the adhesive so that you can peel it off.

+1 - I'd be careful with a razor blade. You can nick the surface. Heat it and use a hard plastic scraper. Once you get the decal off, you can use several available products to remove excess adhesive.

I would make a quick call to the factory customer service. I'm sure they have had some decals that needed to be removed and could tell you what is safe to use without damaging the surface. If you get an answer please post it since it seems 80% of a Pod is decals it would be helpful.

Mine peeled off in one piece after sitting in full sun for 3 hours.
