is there any way to erase something off of an id card without cutting the lamination off?

probably not. but you can go to ur school and in the back of the library (usually its put there) there will be a laminating machine. just say you gotta do some work for your science teacher and they let u back there once they leave just laminate it

I know there are methods. I may look into information on this. It might make for a good guide. If anyone has anything to contribute, please do. I could use a good read.

More trouble than its worth. You could do a gentle peel (soak it in hot water first) and then use a pin and razor... chemicals fuck the paper up. You'd probably be better of starting from scratch.

People don't look that closely if you are convincing. They rarely notice even if the 'Susan' writing a cheque is a 400lb balding old man.

Embossing can easily be done from behind (an empty biro works). Watermarks take more time, dampened blotting paper and clayworkers tools. Get TD pens, you'll need the consistent line width. Photos... bleach or even butane are fun, but the results are poor. Squirrel hair brushes and a set of watercolours. Working oldschool takes a very long time, not viable financially, but an art.

I imagine you could scan, photoshop and then laminate, the lamination would hide the paper quality. I'm only guessing, I can barely use a 'puter, and I've never tried this method.

Hopefully someone who is still working will post.

As far as I know, the only ID modification that is still popular today is the New York ID. The technique that is generally used is called chalking, where color pencils are used to write OVER the lamination of the ID to create a new date of birth. An example would be an born in 1988 being edited to 1966...although NO sane person would find that reasonable, just an example for our case.

As for other states, or changing more info than just a number or 2, the process would be over difficult and simply not worth the time and effort. It would be much simpler, faster, and possibly cost effective to buy a printer and make your own id. Then again, for whatever reason you wish to edit your current one, good luck.

would scratching off with a knife work?

yes it would. wait i mean NO OF FUCKING COURSE NOT.

but from what i hear, its relatively easy to make a fake id. check out counterfeitlibrary.com, ive heard it has good info.

oh and im of course not encouraging you to make a fake id. i think its a felony.

does anyone have a textfile on making fake ids??? ive searched the net to no avail....

In my area the only ID tampering that people can usually get away with is the BC drivers licence , you can soft peel off ( hot water) the thin layer before the "paper" that the pic is on, when you have the paper you can scrape off parts of #'s to make diffrent ones.

99percent of the time it's like this

born Aug 24th, 1988

change to

born Aug 24th, 1983

i havent seen it myself butmaybe ill attempt it soon, but not on my drivers licence , a shitt school id or something
