Whats up everyone. I've got a pretty crooked label on my Super Street Fighter 2, and I've been wanting to reposition it somehow without damaging it. Will a blow dryer work? I'm a little afraid about melting the plastic and possibly wrecking the label. Also, once heated, will the glue still re-adhere, or will I have to put some more on there? Thanks.

If I were you, I'd have another printed rather than go through the trouble of trying to remove it without causing damage.

Hi-res label scans can be found here, and I'm sure kinko's or some other shop could print it on a sticker of some sort.

I do this all the time, a dryer will work fine but you will have to use double sided tape to hold it back down as it will not stick back on its own. Reposition back very carefully as you will only have one shot to get it right

Thanks for the reply mainman. It worked! I ended up using some double-stick ATG framing tape...that stuff ain't ever coming off.

No problem

Your right about that, it aint ever coming off, thats why I said you only get one shot to get it right.
