Removing stickers (from under laquer)

I have a Genesis Flyer and want to get the decals off, but they're under a clear coat laquer. I've see other Flyers de-stickered, maybe they repainted it though. Anyone comer across this before? any solutions?

cheers!

Ok, well last night, I spent best part of 2 1/2hrs "peeling" off the laquer and decals from my Genesis Flyer frame using a razor blade (thanks for the tip Build!), and that was just one side!

There´s a couple of small spots where I´ve been a bit too enthusiastic, but thinking/hoping that touch-up paint --- light sanding --- clear coat laquer will sort it all.

Its all looking really sweet, can´t wait to get the whole bike finished.

The only slight issue, is that the chainline is 6mm out, and I don´t see how it can be adjusted, I´ll have to wait till I get the chain whip/lock-ring tool so I can have a closer look. (the problem is the sprocket is 6mm more inboard that the chainring, and the chainring can´t be moved in any closer).

Anyway, stickers, off, a very clean looking bike. Will do the other side tonight :)

well, tonight I thought I'd try another method to remove the decals from under the laquer of my 2.5 week old bike. I thought I'd try out another method other than the "razor blade" method. Tonight I went at it with emery paper, thinking that it'll leave a smoother surface for painting on. And lucky too, 'cos i've "lightlt" gone through to the metal in a couple of places. A quick smooth of the other side (that I did last night with the razor blade), a quick wash down and its all ready for a spray with the can of spraypaint i'll buy tomorrow, I'l re laquer it, smooth it down again and hopefully it'll be as good as new, minus the decals.
