Removal using Metal Polish

Metal polish is powerful enough to abrade metal, which means that the solvent is also strong enough to dissolve the paint of the FON logo on La Fonera.

Things needed:

  • Metal polish (stainless steel cleaner, brasso, etc.)
  • Kitchen paper (thick tissue paper works fine too)

Method:

  1. Dampen kitchen paper with metal polish
  2. Rub soaked portion of kitchen paper over FON logo
  3. Logo will dissolve into polish - Use a fresh piece of kitchen paper if it is too stained
  4. DO NOT get any paint onto the WLAN, LAN and POWER labels, or they'll come off too
  5. Clean up any leftover polish with a DRY kitchen paper
  6. Clean up trace polish (or else it may degrade the plastic) using a damp kitchen towel (dampen with water)
  7. Enjoy your unbranded Fonera!

Alternate Methods
