HP41C keyboard label remove - isanchez - 05-15-2015 10:31 AM

Hi,
is there any succesful way to remove the keyboard label of an HP41C?
I have got one in bad state that could be replaced from a donor.
Maybe heating with a hairdryer would help? Do you have any experience?

Thanks in advance

Kind regards

Ignacio

My first impulse would be to put an overlay over the marred label.

Am I missing something ??

(it's early here and I'm not too perky yet, LOL)

I had the same though - and a few sticker overlays that could fit the bill. Mind you, not for the standard keyboard but the SandMath, and 41Z; thus you'd have that looking at you permanently which can be perhaps overwhelming and probably not what you want.

Hi,
just to report that I have done it, with the help of a hairdryer.
It looks acceptable, but it has some bends and marks that are very difficult to avoid.

Thanks a kind regard

Ignacio
