Default How to get plastisol trnsfers off of a shirt/hoody?

This is just kind of a follow up question to my previous one about my setup. I have 3 hoodys that have like half a plastisol transfer stuck on. I can scratch most of it off with my finger nail but this takes forever and it's not the cleanest. Is there some other way to get it off without wrecking the hoody?


Here's a picture of what I've done so far.

I don't know of any effective way to remove large areas of plastisol. I do use a spot cleaning gun to "shoot out" small areas, but it is time consuming and the chemical is too expensive to use on large areas

eat the loss and move on..

or you could sell the "misprints" at a discount.. i unload my occasional misfire in record time by offering them up for $10 + free shipping on my website.. i pretty much break even but i reach a new customer and i get rid of 'unsellable' inventory.
