    I want to remove the orange logo on the lower right area of the deck.

    It feels raised, like silkscreen.

    The plastic is also textured to imitate brushed aluminum.,

    so I need a way that doesn't involve rubbing, which will blunt the plastic texture.

    I once read that you could remove the brand logo from a cell phone by rubbing the logo with a sugar cube edge, But were do you get sugar cubes these day`s i suppose a google search will give an more helpful remedy.

    For this one I think your SOL. any attempt to remove that, will probably damage the finish on your notebook too.

    I would not risk it, it's not a decal, so pretty much anything you do that will remove it is either going to abrade, nick or otherwise compromise the finish. You might have some luck with alcohol, but probably not.
