Taking the graphic off spd grips?

I have custom graphic set of spd grips and don't like the graphic so I was thinking if anyone knows a way take it off?

I was thinking bead blasting but not to sure if it will work.

Any one have an idea?

those are actually pretty nice grips. i bet you could sell them and just buy new grips without losing any money.

I'll try to sell them. But if they don't sell, do you know of a way to take it off?

I cant tink of a good way. you'll never get a smooth, clear surface on the back. I wouldnt trust most types of paint thinner/ removers not to kill the lexan. defiantly dont use any alcohols.

you could sand them. Use 150-200 grit and work in small circles until you can just start to see through, then lay them flat on the sandpaper on a flat surface and finish it. The backs won't be shiny anymore, kinda frosted inside, but you can then paint them any color you want.

Use a hairdryer or heat gun to heat up the back, it will help loosen up the adhesive and you can peel it off easier. Use goo gone or alchohol to clean up the rest.
