I want to refurbish my stainless steel gas stove front control panel section which has some dings and scratches, basically I need to remove the clearcoat by wet sanding and by doing so it will remove the brand logo Frigidaire gallery and the on and off writing ect.... does anyone know what type of custom decals I need ?

photo added, the only section of the stove that is clearcoated is the control panel, the rest of the stove is bare stainless steel, since that area is prone to a lot of touching they figured it was best to add a protective coat to minimise fingerprints.

Thanks

I would imagine for something like that you are looking more at a custom dry transfer. Not endorsing this place as i have not used them but this page has a good overview of the process.

Hey Mike,

thanks for the link I was hoping I can pay someone to have them made.

Instead, you could try 91% rubbing alcohol; that may cut through the clearcoat without removing the frigidare logo.

I absolutely have to wet sand down to the bare stainless steel to remove the deep scratches and dents, then recoat.

I would have purchased a new front panel in a heart beat to avoid the headaches but the part is discontinued, only the functional parts are available, the oven is like brand new and well taking care of but of course the wife had to drop a freaking pot lid and dent the panel duuuuuh.
