Getting the writing off arrow shafts

[AlanF]

I've got some GT shafts I want to use to make arrows for my new '59 Kodiak.  What do you use to get the writing off the shafts when making "fancy" arrows?

A little acetone on a wash cloth. It scrubs off pretty easily.

Yep acetone

Lacquer thinner also works- as it also works to take off dipping, cresting, fletching, glue, etc. . .

I use acetone and 0000 steel wool.

I just use dish soap and a green scrachpad. little scrubbing under warm water and done.

Denatured alcohol works too, just did a set of bemans with it.

Another for denatured alchohol (w/ Brillo pad),   Easiest I've found
