What did you use to reapply the stickers so that neither the sticker nor the
brick would damaged/discolored?

coming off.  I can replace some of the stickers from the Idea Book sheets • I
have however some will be impossible to reapply and have them stay.  Has
anyone had any success in removing stickers, cleaning off the old glue • and
dirt, and then reapplying them?   I want to refurbish the stickers as • much
as possible so I can offer it for sale and I want it to be as complete as
possible.  LMK!
