Hi Rich yeah you can remove the tank badges and re use them, they should be held on by two pins that go into little clips in the tank, you can either use something like a wall paper scraper or some thin string? just need to get behind and gently pry them off with out bending them  ;) cheers Mick.

I use a bit of fishing line, in a hoop and feller blades. Got the fishing line tip from Oddjob.
