You remove what it actually is.
About 5 months ago, as a test of my skill I removed a name from the pen shown.
There only two methods for a perfect finish.
Farmboy half mentioned one.
Good luck using any chemicals - you will destroy the molecular structure.
Have added a photograph of restored 1mm heat pressed gold lettered name.
You will not see anything unless you use a micrometer and 20 magnification.
If you are an expert at this - have a good look at the straight reflection lines - that is the ultimate test of finish.
