badge adhesive

[3pt1lumina]

I am trying to get the adhesive off of the trunk where it used to say "Lumina." I broke the 'a' off and I need to replace the emblem. So I took the old emblem off.

 

Now how do I get the adhesive off? I want to put my new badge on there. I know what to use for that.

I broke my "A" off last year as well pushing the car (well my friend did)...I just glued it back on and it looks decent

I de-badged my Regal using 3M Aerosol Adhesive and Wax Remover...

to get my dealer sticker off...worked pretty well

hey discostudd how do you use that stuff???

I just want the paint to be safe. I can't afford to paint the car for another couple of years, so I dont want to use the wrong thing and make it look like crap.

 

If it's like taking pinstriping off, I'll use my "scratch out." That worked fine

Spray a little on the crusty old black emblem tape and let it soak for a few seconds, then spray a butt-load of it on a cloth rag and wipe away (well, you'll need to use a little "elbow grease.") It does work excellent, though. I also used it when I removed the pinstriping from the front fenders, and it worked great for that as well...

I used engine degreaser, very carefully, mind you. It wasn't on the paint for more than 5 seconds.
