A well adjusted thumb plane could shave off just the lettering. Its silk screened on top of the black.

Do not limit yourself to what others think is reasonable or possible.

Could be difficult if it is screened onto a textured surface.

I have had some limited success using either isopropyl alcohol or acetone in the past, but again would be concerned of damaging the painted surface.

As the others have said, it is probably best to either leave it alone, repurpose or cover it.

You could cover it with an adhesive label:

Doesn't say much for the quality of the silk screening does it? :roll:
