I'm using this Revell '70 Mustang to build a slot car to be mounted on a Pioneer chassis. It's nearly done, including numbers on the doors and roof, but I've now decided I want to get rid of the Mustang decal on the hood that came with the car. This is a consistent issue with SnapTite kits because obviously kids today are so lame they couldn't possibly figure out how to build a real model, or if applying their own decals and they came out crooked they'd probably need therapy to recover.

I've had this body for several years and was able to get the stripe off the hood back then, but can't remember what I did. Now I'm seeking feedback/advice on how to remove the hood decal carefully so as not to damage the rest of the car. My default options are to cover the hood with Monokote, or mask off the rest of the car and spray paint just the hood gloss black.
Thoughts?
