DoogyRev Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 Lots of hot water and some fishing line Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
introspect Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 I used a hair dryer to heat the glue and a thin spatula to lift it off, worked a treat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coldel Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 Boiling water, get a sponge, sponge it on. Use some fishing line or dental floss, ease the badge off. Just keep putting the water on and wiggle the badge/use line and it will start to shift about and come away. Some white spirit then to shift the adhesive that is left over. Get some super resin polish (autoglym) and polish back the finish. Dry it all up and you are ready to go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sasha@lazytrips Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 You can use hairdryer/hot water/lots of scrubbing and it'll still look rubbish after an hour of trying to carefully get it off. Get yourself Autoglym tar remover - whole job done in 2 minutes with absolutely perfect results. Speaking from experience of 2 weeks ago.

Dano190485 Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 i put a hot water bottle in a pillow case and left it on the badges for half a hour and it just lifted off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
