I know it sounds crazy, but brake fluid works to remove texta sail numbers from sails, and I expect it removes glue residue just as well.
Does anyone know what solvents do ruin sails? I have tried brake fluid successfully, but using acetone sounds a bit worrying.
Brake fluid is rather strong stuff. I have used any number of chemicals on a sail that I bought which previously belonged to a professional. However, nothing I used harmed the monofilm. I discovered, though, that some adhesives are stronger than others. Bic stickers were so difficult to remove that I thought they would make great sail repair material.
