Whoops, put the wrong shield decal on my 28mm knight.
Is there an easy way to remove it so I can replace it with the correct
One?

I would think "decal solvent solution" would loosen it up.

ebay has "Model Masters."

They're waterslide decals. Use warm water with a drop of washing up liquid.

If you haven't yet sealed it with a clear coat, some masking or clear tape might do the trick. Mash it on tight and take it off slowly. It may come off in pieces so could take several tries.

I save the prescription pill bottle/containers (the transparent orange type) for miscellaneous small bits storage. The labels can be tenacious to get off. But some Scotch Tape pulls up the scraps and glue using fresh strips of it as they get clogged.
