> The present finish is mahogany with polyurethane covering. 

Most pianos with a poly finish don't have a decal but the name is very
thin brass that is stuck to the wood then finish sprayed over and
around the brass.  The brass can be polished just like any other
brass.  I would suggest using Flitz, available from Pianotek.  You can
remove the letters but you will have raw wood underneath and large
chunks of finish missing.

My suggestion is leave it alone or send the fall board back to the
manufacturer for replacement and refinishing.
