Branded like cattle.
What happens here
The narrator mentions removing original manufacturer logos (e.g., "New Holland" off the skid-steer and "Kubota" from the excavator) to emphasize their own branding. This optional step requires careful technique to avoid damaging the underlying paint. Use a heat gun or hairdryer to warm the existing decals, making the adhesive more pliable. Gently peel the decals away using a plastic scraper or your fingernail. Any remaining adhesive residue can be removed with an adhesive remover or isopropyl alcohol.
Goal: Optionally remove original manufacturer decals to highlight custom branding.
