Hi. When I got a new phone a couple weeks ago, it came with this really nice, name-brand (not giving names here) phone case. It’s really rugged and feels great on the hands. It’s also one of the most premium phone-case options out there.
Unfortunately, the case is plastered with the text: Pixel. The only phone engineered by Google. I really don’t enjoy being a walking advertisement for Google, but leaving such a great case lying around is quite a pity.
So I wanted to ask if there’s a way to remove the text that would not damage the case itself?
The case is made of TPE plastic according to its packaging. I thought about just scratching it off cause it does seem to be some kind of layer on top of the case, but I’m worried it won’t be removed cleanly and might even leave behind scratches.
Is there another way? Is there some kind of solvent able to do this job?
Here’s a closeup if that helps.
Thanks!
Edit: I have decided to uncensor the words.
I’m in club “cool sticker”, if you can get something to stick to it.
I follow the “buy a Windows computer, install Linux, and slap an Apple sticker on it” school of thought. If it’s an Android phone, I would recommend using another Apple sticker.
That is epic.
Is that like “my favourite part of Star Wars is when Gandalf says Make It So” ?
“Dodge this”, Han Solo said and threw the ring in the volcano.
You just unearthed a memory of a girl asking “Yoda? Ain’t he that dude from Mario?”
My 15yo self was soooooo snobby about that.
Hell yeah cool sticker. I have an iPhone but I have a clear-backed case with a couple bad dragon stickers between the case and the phone.
do you mind sharing an example?
Yeah! Right now I have two of the standard red/black stickers from here, facing opposite ways: https://bad-dragon.com/products/bdstickers

If you have a friend with a Cricut/Silhouette machine, they can make you some custom stickers pretty easily.
