QUICK SIMPLE DEBADGING!

Im gonna have to try this!

[knowledge]

thats a great tool didn't even know they made one

For badges and hard lettering, i use Methylated Spirits, or in the states you call it 91% Isopropyl Alcohol. Squirt it so it can get behind the adhesive, lever it slowly with something like a plastic door stopper. If you're patient and careful, it'll only take a couple of minutes if you do it slowly and let the alcohol do its work.

These tools also remove tree sap. Using a heat gun is still the best bet done right u can pull the badges with no glue left

I just debadged my car recently using the fishing line method. I had the sticky crap left on and also peeled it off with my fingers...terrible experience lol. But do you guys know anything that can get rid of the "ghost letters"? Like all my letter and gunk are off but you can still see the outline of where they used to be.....i've tried like everything to get it off but nothing has worked. Any suggestions?

buffing with a medium compound and then fine should do it.

and 3M makes their "eraser wheel" same thing as the OP posted just white and smooth. They are a must for body shops.
