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) |

Another good thing to get old adhesive off with is lamp oil. (k-mart or walmart), not sure about emblem glue, but it works great on other stuff, like old dried duct tape or masking tape.
On the bike forums, I've read they use a hair dryer or heat gun to heat the emblem til it pops off. |
