Do you have a link on the PCA web site? I'd be interested to see when Porsche changed their procedure.

On my, Looks like gross use of Paint Thinner. Is the plastic now very flexible and breakable?

What procedure did you use? I'm trying to figure out if we're looking at the sticker or the plastic.

I have no idea what methyl ethyl ketone does to plastic, but I have a feeling that you didn't get the label off, but just the printing. Take off your visor, soak a paper towel in IP alcohol and let it sit on the visor for about 5 minutes. My guess is that the label is there and will peel off. Underneath may be discolored, but probably not in bad shape. Then get some Mother's Back to Black and wipe it on the visor, hopefully it will be restored to black.

Don't despair about the cracks on the visor. I believe I have a pending solution and by this time next week when confirmed I will share. Share with picture proof
