Hey guys, So after the mishap with the install of my rear differential since i pretty much wasted the whole day i wanted to accomplish SOMETHING. So hey i thought why not debadge the trunk it sounds pretty easy and wont take too long. Got the emblems off and now im stuck with this. I've tried everything, WD-40, Goo gone, household cleaner. This stuff wont budge, Do you guys have any ideas of help to get this adhesive off my damn car!! PLEASE!!

yeah man i used goo gone and elbow grease and then had it buffed out when i was done. use your finger nail to scrape off all of that sticky glue and then use the goo gone

You need a rubber ball that goes into a drill to wipe it right out

Thanks guys! Ill give that a try. I must attach it onto any drill? Also where could i buy something like this and does it hurt the paint?

Why don't you use a hair dryer to soften the glue, and the roll the glue with fingers. That's what I did a month ago wen I debadged.

I've tried that but it seems that the glue is really baked onto the paint. After a half hour of work i was getting nowhere.

Dude... Just rub the **** out of it after you heat it up. Don't be afraid to drench it in Goo Gone. Just make sure it doesn't get on any plastic and you'll be good.

Why wet sand when removing an emblem?!

Goo gone or WD-40 works as well. Make the glue soft and it comes off easily with a little bit of rubbing. If you use WD-40 make sure you wash your car afterwards.

^ it removes the emblem, but not that adhesive. Just drive to a body shop and have them buff it out

well since the adhesive is stuck on so hard, even after removing the sticky stuff, there will be a burnt image of LEXUS GS300 still on there. wet sand and polish will fade it out. If you take it to a shop they will wet sand first anywhoo.
