Hobby stuffer - grrr

Just arrived in the post. Yes it looked a nice bit of kit and well made. but why oh why does the manufacturer have to stick a huge label on it that does not remove very easily at all. It is also a paper not plastic label, so there is no option of just leaving it on. Even trying very gently I have managed to put a couple of light scratches on it and yes I was using a solvent as well, it must have taken about half an hour to remove it.

I think you're getting yourself in a lather over nothing. I've had mine for several weeks now and I barely noticed the label. It goes through the washing-up without any problems. Maybe it will eventually disintegrate and come off, but I don't intend to lose any sleep over it.

Chill, man!

Well to be honest I didn't think it was meant to come off and didn't treat it as a label but more of a badge of the marque.

Mine has been cleaned dozens of times and it is still in pristine condition, mind you I do not put it in the dishwasher.

I think if it was meant to come off as a selling label it would have come off much easier than it appears to have done for you.

mine's starting to peel a bit

Cant say I notice the label much, but it will probably come off as time and washing up take their toll. As to washing up I don't put mine in the dishwasher either. I made the mistake of putting all the bits to my electric mincer in it when I first got it, and they came out black and powdery. Took hours and many Brillo pads to get them shiny again, and about a year for my hands to recover from the experience!

Most labels can cleanly be removed by spraying it with Q20... and leaving it for a wile
