They reaally know how to make the stuff... I tried goo gone, alcohol, little bit of gassoline, and maybee paint thinner, and I cant get it off.

I've heard good things about that 3M stuff that LordRandall mentioned
also heard of dremel attachments used to take it off, it's kind of like a big rubber eraser

now go get back to playing billiards by yourself
