ok so i tried to debadge my car of its GT and i got the GT off so there was glue left. so i used a flat head screwdriver to get some of it off, cause it was thick, then used some kind of wood cleaner (thats all i had) and paper towels and got a little more off but this wasnt working too well. so i tried the rough side of a sponge and got most of it off but now its a little faded in that area i tried waxing it and i think that helped a little but not much. it is still noticable and you can still kinda see the GT mark.
does anyone have any suggestions please??? is it possible to touch it up w/some paint or something? i posted this once on another string but this is urgent so im making it a topic...(sorry if youre not supposed to do that, i didnt know if theres a rule or not) |

If i were you i would go and buy some Mother's brand pre-cleaner wax. It takes out fade from paint like you wouldent believe, and it helps with swirlmarks really well, without an orbital buffer. I dont know if it will help with the badge mark, but after 2 years of swearing by the stuff, i have a hunch that it will take it right out. Just rememebr to wax the area you use it on, because it takes all the old wax off.
