Removing football badge

RickyBobby1 · 2014-08-21 22:09:40

I am looking at buying a referee jersry second hand as its alot cheaper but there is a badge embroidered on and the other was put on with a heat press. Would it be possible to remove them? I will be putting my own badge where the old badge will be removed. Please see pictures below, any help would be great!

No guarantees, but if you covered the heat press badge with brown paper and applied an iron it should melt the adhesive and you could peel off the badge. Trial and error, working up heat, try doing it from the back as the fabric would be thinner than the badge and you would get at the glue easier.

Embroidered badges can be removed with loads of patience and a very sharp nail scissors, but chances are there will always be evidence that the stitching was there. Should be acceptable from a distance though.
