Thanks you the video. I used nail polish remover instead and it worked just as well. I’m going to try the steamer next because you can slightly see the outline
Hey man, great video! Love the infor a bit late here. The reason i came across this was because tomorrow i get my white Sox jersey black from the 2000s, back when they didn't have the batterman on the neck. So, unfortunately, it has the number 37, and upon checking, i noticed the fabric is entirely different from yours, so hopefully, this works. The jersey i got is more of a thicker fabric and less pores.
I used the Razor blade technique to remove the jersey numbers and name plate and everything went well on both jersey. The back number came off nicely and no stain, but the front was a disaster and the blue bled everywhere. I had a seamstress replace the front material on the top front of the jersey and it came out really good. I wish I could post an image
Great video. Thanks for sharing. I've read you can also use an iron to remove ghosting by placing a t-shirt between the iron and jersey. My question is, do you spray the steam from the iron directly onto the jersey before placing the t-shirt, or do you spray steam onto the t-shirt and iron?
@@surfthecosmos correct when I use the shirt to iron stuff I use a polyester blend undershirt. I highly recommend using a plain white shirt with no design or other colors to be safe not to transfer die onto the Jersey
@@jersey_jaguar The only concern I did have (as you mentioned) is the color bleeding from the numbers. With the jersey I am working on it is white with the blue numbers (though vinyl material) hopefully there will be minimal bleeding. But after speaking with a local tailor, she just stated just spot dye the affected areas white. As long as the jersey as a whole is not affected by aging with a amber / yellowing shade the new dye will blend-in nicely..... But she did state spot-dying only works well with white colors.
@@camsprocket spot dying may work. Also some of the time the die is actually in the left over adhesive and not the jersey itself. In that situation you can get it out usually. If the material itself has a color difference under the numbers do to age / oxidation or fading that unfortunately is permanent. But being a semi new jersey that will most likely not be the case most luckely.
I recently purchased a Nike MLB jersey, and I want to remove the name. The jersey is the replica version, it does not have stitching on the letters, just glue. I read that pure acetone can dissolve the glue and remove the letters. Any tips for a better result?
Fantastic video, thank you for posting!
Much appreciated man and thanks for watching!
Man i needed this one, good stuff Jag
Thanks King Leo 🦁 I'm glad it could help!
Agreed on oxidation, especially frustrating on white fabric
Yeah man for real! Cool base MLB had the notorious armpit air flow mesh, and countless football nameplate and rib material
Awesome video! These steps worked wonders on my jersey! The steaming almost completely got rid of the ghosting in a matter of minutes. Thank you!!!
I'm happy it helped and thanks for watching

Just saw the pic it looks great!
I took the number and name off a Phillies jersey do you know how I can take off all the glue residue ?
Definitely. You need to use VLR. I'll be making a video on this soon.

Thanks for watching! If using a iron place the shirt on it first, even if it's just to steam it.
@@jersey_jaguar OK, so the steam gets through the shirt and onto the jersey to remove any ghosting or creasing on the crest?

@@jersey_jaguar Thanks for the help! Much appreciated! Practicing on a Red Wings replica, before trying it on an authentic.
@@surfthecosmos my pleasure and smart thinking better safe than sorry. Hope you the best with it
Boi... I subbed soon as that Jag jumped on the screen....
Very much appreciated! 🐆
What a great video. I'm changing the numbers and name plate on my Rams game used Super Bowl 56 jersey that cost me a small fortune.
Thanks for watching and I appreciate the feedback! The Rams jersey sounds cool What player are you changing it to?
@@jersey_jaguar KUPP

Nice tip! Any tips on how to tighten stretched out jersey collars on vintage authentic basketball jerseys?
Unfortunately just like with most clothes once the elastic loses elasticity it can't go back
Can you try this with an nfl issued jersey? I’ll send you one to work with
Shoot me a pm on IG
jersey.Jaguar we'll try to figure something out. Sorry in advance for the late reply
Awseome video man, Do you think this would also work on soccer jerseys too ?
So soccer jerseys use heat pressed Vinyl. You can use VLR to get the kit off but be advised that it may take multiple tries and potentially bleed.
Say say, bro, do you know how to remove the numbers from the Nike jerseys that they’re like sublimated or they’re like he pressed on there
@@ICEHOUSERECORDS361 thanks for watching. Those are extremely difficult. I do but it's extremely easy to mess up honestly.
Couldn't you use a sticky roller to pick all the loose threads out? Did you leave the 3 on? Who did you change it to?
For some yes, sometimes there really stubborn
@@jersey_jaguar Who did you switch the back of the jersey to?
Do you think VLR would do a good job on removing the cheap heat pressed letters and numbers off the back of a mlb jersey I got at a stadium?
Most likely. VLR is technicallyafe for vinyl. Always test the jersey first
@@jersey_jaguar thank you! Do you feel like it would be safe with this cheap twill type of fabric lettering? The fabric feels paper thin.

@@juane.lagunasvillagomez8400 you can also try VLR. Thanks for watching
@@jersey_jaguar thanks for the tips mate!
@@juane.lagunasvillagomez8400 my pleasure 💪
How well does this process work with a Nike NFL elite jersey?
@@jeffgaba760 thanks for watching. It helps but elites leave a lot of residue behind which you will have to remove
Would you recommend VLR on elite jerseys to remove that glue left over?
@@shmoneyblue5076 you can. Just be careful
