At 17:30 23 November 2003, Milan Air asked for help
finding an article on removing old contest numbers...

RAS readers were kind enough to tackle this and a related
question about rubbing compound back on March 20,2003.
Searching on 'contest number,' the rec.aviation.soaring
archive link on the Glider Pilot Network can take you
to these suggestions.

FWIW: Lacquer thinner worked for me, so although I
did not find Gary Evans sanding advice necessary, I
firmly believe the case of beer he suggested is an
integral part of any project.... asuming, of course,
it's reserved for the post-project celebration.
