BEEFSTEW800 View Member Profile Enthusiast Joined Dec 30, '03 From Atlanta Currently Offline Reputation: 0 (0%)	I started to debadge my toyota text on the rear with a heat gun and i cant get all the glue off. Is there some trick to this? I have most of it off, but there is still an outline of the work toyota (it looks like ****). I have a heat gun and have been heating it up and rubbing on the glue but it wont come off any more. thanks for any help -Stew

As long as you soak the glue and rub at it, it will come off cleanly and flawless (with no paint damage), but it only fades paint if left on for a decent amount of time.

don't use gasoline, it will fade your paint fast. rubbing alchohol works fine on the adhesive and won't damage your paint if you're careful with it.

Then go to wall mart or auto zone and pick up some stuff called "Goo Gone" its paint friendly and take the stuff off easily. or if you want to get really original and get half a orange, and rub it where the glue is at wait a few seconds then with your credit card edge just gently remove the glue.
