Castaway Wilson Volleyball help

Hey all. I'm trying to make a Wilson replica and found a newer leather Wilson AVP volleyball with AVP and Wilson written all over it. I'm trying to take off the logos that don't belong to make it screen accurate. Anyone know a way to remove the logos?
 
I used acetone. It didn't completely remove it, but easily 80 percent of it. After I weathered the ball you couldn't see it any more.
 
I think that the screen used one was an AVP and on the non face side would have had both logo's, i also hate to break it to you but Wilson have been selling replica "wilson" volleyballs for years now, you can buy them at walmart and they come with the wilson logo, the avp logo and a cast away logo on the front and the wilson face on the back http://www.walmart.com/ip/27104384?...37501952&wl4=&wl5=pla&wl6=78650813792&veh=sem

here's the back of Wilson he has both logos intact, why do i refer to a volley ball as him??? on a side note Wilson has his own IMDB page

Thank. You for the responses. I have the one that has the print of him and a real leather one. The new one I have is leather and wanted it to
Be more accurate then the one that is selling for 15 bucks.

I know the black air fill plug is bigger then the original one. I cut it done easily. It had a lip that was easily removed
