removing markings from golf balls

[Stephen]

I intend to make bottle stoppers with golf balls. Have tried all available detergents in the kitchen and acetone to remove the markings/logo but did not work. Google search to use IPA (isopropyl alcohol) does not work. Help please. Thanks.

Why not just buy blank golf balls?

acetone dissolves a lot of things - incl CA glue

Wouldn't the logos make them more interesting?

assuming your are gluing them to the stopper, why not just drill through it and put the logo down side to the stopper.

I thought people actually look for logos. Be careful using acetone on the plastic. It will melt it and make a mess.

Removing logosfrom golf balls

Thanks for the suggestions. I was concerned about trademark issues if I sold them. Most have more than one marking to hide below the stopper. Have to look for blank ones in the local shops.

I've used golf balls to make key rings and the like when i've used marked ones it's generally deliberate as a promotional item for the golf club etc. the decals are easy to remove with cellulose thinners and a scrub. If they are printed its more difficult and easiest is buy blank ones
