I had some real old easton xx75's that had the barcode stickers on them. Basically I just ripped them off as bestI could but it left that sticky residue so I held them over the sink or outside works and sprayed the affected area with WD40 let it soak in for a little bit then rub it off.

If you want to take them off soak the arrow in cold soapy water for a couple of hours then use a scouring pad but dont press to hard otherwise you will scratch up the shaft.

Well...I guess you can if you really want to

But there is no need to.

If you want to just follow Kanga's instructions

I used Goo Gone Extreme. It's cheap and works quickly. Some people may advise against this because it may cause the carbon fiber to split/fray. Try it on one and if there is no problem, go for it. Just but it on a rag and rub for a few seconds. It's gone! To back this up, I took some pictures of my arrows, which are not frayed at all. They were Carbon Express Maxima 350 3D selects, which have a similar red logo. The Goo Gone Extreme did the trick. The only problem I had with the stuff was the smell, so I recommend that you do it outside. There will be no sticky residue. It may temporarily discolor them (slightly lighter), but that goes away after a month or so. You will notice that my arrows are completely black. Just don't miss. You will never find these until you get the lawn mower out. Haha!

I am having problems posting my pictures. That is what all the edits are for. You may just have to take my word for it.
