Sutliff Posted April 8, 2014 Report Share Posted April 8, 2014 Sutliff- Hit up your local paint supply store. They sell a 3M adhesive remover, takes it off no problem with minimal elbow grease To remove the old one just use a heat gun on it a little until you can tell the old adhesive is warmed up and slide a piece of floss behind it while pressing it against the body as much as possible, old one will pop off with ease Did this when I took the emblems off my equinox except I just bought the cheapest blow dryer since they don't get as hot as a heat gun will. Get the emblem and adhesive warm and then run a piece of dental floss between the emblem and the body so that you're cutting through the foam. Rub what's left off with some Goo Gone to make sure you get all the sticky shit off and then go back over everything with some rubbing alcohol and clean cotton cloth to take any oils and road debris particles off. Thank you, Sir. Definitely use a hair dryer vs. the heat gun ... especially since I give a hoot about the car's finish ... I knew about the dental floss - or some lightweight fishing line. GooGone! Totally skipped my mind, & to think I have a small bottle of it in the garage that I have never even used! ... & rubbing alcohol a few times to make sure everything is removed.

MyimpalaFinLBS Posted April 8, 2014 Report Share Posted April 8, 2014 I'm probably not making what you think I am....but either way after 56 weeks working that much I'd gladly take a few weeks without it. Luckily I am 4 days into a one handed 2 month paid vacation....I had hand surgery Friday morning....really puts a hault on a build though, haha.
