I'm a little behind on the e-mails, so if you have gotten an answer 
already please forgive me. Easy off oven cleaner works real well to 
take off old painted on names. Put it on and let it soak for about 5 
minutes and then scrap real lightly with a window scraper with a one 
sided razor blade in it. We used a whole can of the oven cleaner on 
ours last year to take off three layers of paint, all different 
colors for the same name over the years. Afterwards I took some real 
mild rubbing compound and worked on the transom and it came out 
pretty good. Can hardly tell what we had done. Of course we replaced 
the old painted on name with a new computer generated lettering but 
it came out really good!! Hope that helps, any questions let me know.
