Not that I recommend it, but if you really want to remove the decals, sand them off and smooth the plastic with a blow torch or a heat gun. Heat will melt the roughed up plastic and blend it with the rest of the hull. This is one way of removing shallow scratches. Obviously, there are big risks in using heat on a plastic tub. If you are not skilled with a heat gun, just fughedaboudit.
