I have a 2014 Black Matte Trek Madone 5.2 and it has white logo’s that I dislike (plus I think a higher end model has black on black that looks slick). I’ve read some posts here, but before i go take a hair dryer and acetone to it, wonder how I’d tell if there is clear coat or how I would check or if these are painted or decals/stickers. Long story short, has anyone done this on a Trek without damaging the Carbon Fiber?
If the frame and lettering are matte it has clear over the decals. If the lettering is shiny it might be a surface mount decal without clear but I doubt it.
You would need to sand the decals off and reclear. Damaging the carbon is not that great if risk if you sand it by hand only enough to remove the decals. Since you probably have 20 decals on the frame I would pick one under the down tube or a less visible area to play with.
I have a 2001 Toyota Echo that’s my daily driver (true story). How do I paint it so it looks like an FR-S?
Seriously man, a Madone 5.2 is a nice bike. Just ride the thing and look at the road, not your bike.

Why would you want an FR-S? We all know the BRZ is better /half pinkish
