Brasso, T-Cut, or similar come in useful if you manage to scratch it
anyway.
Test your technique on some matching scrap plastic
first before moving on to
the case. You say "polycarbonate" but Wikipedia says "acrylic", and
these
have quite different mechanical properties so you should verify which
plastic the case is actually made from. Maybe the resin code will tell you,
but I suspect it'll just say 7 (other).
From all I have been dig up on it, its polycarbonat
that was used for the
outer casing, going on that it seems wd-40 would be a no go.
I ended up tested with ethanol on the buttom feets, seing no ill effect after some
time, I tested it on the glue and I started to see miscolouring of the
papertowle, the glue was comming off.
If all else fails, style it out by sticking your own
label over it :)
:) good advice also if attempts had made it worse
Thanks to all for advices
