Removed Emblems but...

The glue is still there. I spent 4 hours using simple green, a hair dryer, and a pressure washer to get it off. Some of it came off but alot of it is still there. Anyone got advice here? I have yet to try Goo Gone. Only thing is that the glue is pretty hard and Im pretty sure it wont make a diference.

buff it off... thats what I did.. and vortex

Ill go out and buy some 3M wax and adhesive remover and hopefully it comes off cus it looks but ugly right now lol.

I got some help removing mine. I used some adhesive remover and lemon juice, while my friend used regular car polish. The car polish worked better then the GooGone. When you debage, with whatever you use, make sure you wash, rinse, clay then wax your truck.

I used meguiars cleaner wax.

Yeah just like everyone said make sure that as soon as you get it off with goo gone or something, make sure you wash, polish, and wax that area really well... heck, If you have the time, do the whole car!!

Use Goo Gone. DO NOT USE SIMPLE GREEN! That stuff is strong! With Goo Gone, just rub it in a bit with a rag and it should come out. but wash the spot afterwards so it doesn't damage the paint.

I read on another forum that a guy found Automotive Goo Gone. I've never seen it, but if u do, then go with that. If not, use the regular Goo Gone.

woah dude, why are you using Simple Green on ur car....stop using Simple Green on ur car, lol..

I only used it to try to remove the glue. It wouldnt come off so I stopped. Gonna go buy goo gone if I get time today.

mayur get on aim

ARGHH Im pissed as f**k right now. I have blisters all over my fingers trying to remove this s**t. I called up some friends who removed theirs and they came over to help out. They tell me that this is not the kinda glue they had. We go to autozone and they say its epoxy. ARGHHH someone is gonna get seriously f**ked up.

I can barely type cus of all the blisters. I now understand why it took me 4 hours to remove my emblems, because the dumbass body repair man used epoxy to put them back on.

All cept the thumb on right hand.

Debadging his car. I used fishing line when I did my truck, and I got some blisters on my hand as well.

I used Simple Green on the inside of my truck to remove an external display that was mounted on my center console. It works very well, and I got the glue off. I wouldn't recommended it externally as it could damage the clear coat on the paint.

i seen this video sumwhere where these guys used WD-40 to debadge their Sti's but idk since u say your's is epoxy thats different...lol

The guy at autozone said to use acetone but Im not sure if that will rip off clear coat/paint so Im gonna research it first.

if u use acetone, u are offically retarded. do not use that. thats worse then simple green.

goo gone did wonders for me, and wax

I didnt. He told me to use acetone but I was 99% sure it would rip off everything. Dont know what Im gonna do now. Im probably gonna sand down the thicker parts of the expoxy being careful not to hurt the paint and put my emblems back on.

so....are you gonna redo ur clear coat or something...why the hell would you use acetone...A..he was prolly tryin to see if you were gullable enough to use acetone on ur car....B..why would u listen to the "specialists" at autozone...while ur at it, you can ask the "specialists" over at wal-mart too, i heard they give awesome advice..

My bumper is screwed up anyways so its gonna have to be painted. Ive got a silver car so its gonna be damn hard to blend it. He mighthave to repaint trunk. He can do it while hes at it. And im not stupid. I didnt buy the acetone nor will I use it. The guy there seemed to be a dumbass anyways. Ive had better experience with people at Walmart than at Autozone.

if you're gonna have the bumper painted, then just wait and have the trunk redone as well. Let them deal with it then. why even bother if you feel you'll need to repaint the trunk anyways?

Take it to a detailing spot and see what they suggest. Maybe they can get it out for you.

^I had alot of free time on my hands. Im just waiting for my body repair guy to come back from vacation.

I thought I explained that already... Maybe it was CC. The epoxy is very rigid. I kept running my fingers over it to try and loosen it up with goo gone. Lets just say it started to hurt like hell after a while. Most of them are pretty small now.
