Almost all dashcameras has some kind of printing on the front of the unit ( model, brand name, etc ), but all this makes dashcamera more visible from outside. To make it more discrete, - need to remove logo. Easiest way is just to use black electrical tape, or just cover with permanent market, but for proper job and nice look best is to remove this printing. For that you need some "soft" solvent like Goof Off or Goo Gone, but its hard to find them in many countries.
NB! Do not use paint thinner, nail polisher remover or any other hard solvents. They are too strong and will remove top coating of dashcam paint ( I learned it hard way ).
I tried Graffiti Remover and it worked perfectly.
If your dashcam has slightly black matt coating, then place where you removing logo or other printing, will be slightly shiny ( this is normal ), but I have used scoring pad to bring matt back.
For hard to access places, ( like lens surrounding ring on Panorama 2 ), need first to add few drops of Graffity Remover to the paint, leave it for 10 sec to soften the paint and then scrape away with knife or scissors.
During whole process use time to time paper tissue ( I used toilet paper ) to wipe off excessive liquid, so it will not stay too long on surrounding plastic parts.
Whole process will take about 10 minutes.
