If you did any research on this forum you would have found a writeup.

Emblem Debadgging

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tools Needed:
1. Fishing line
2. Hair dryer
3. Rag
4. Goo Gone
5. Car polish
6. Car wax
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1. If your car has been sitting in the sun for awhile try just using the fishing line and dragging it behind the emblems to cut through the adhesieve. If your car hasn't been in the sun try using a hair dryer on high for a second or so not too long, to heat up the adhesieve in the back and then try using the fishing like to slice off the emblem from the adhesieve.

2.
Take the Goo Gone and the rag once all the emblems are off squirt the Goo Gone on the leftover adhesieve and rub it off with the rag. Make sure it all comes off and that you dry the area.

3. Take the car polish now and a clean rag and polish the area that the emblems were on. You may want to clean the area first with a little soap and water, then dry it and then polish it.

4. Take the wax and just wax the area as a final step to making it look nice.

5. Your done stand back and look at the nice clean look of a debadged car.
