Decals can be easily removed with a heat gun. Emblems use a very strong 3M adhesive that takes a little more effort and care to prevent scratching or lifting the paint or breaking the emblem (most are plastic).

The fishing line method works at getting the emblem off, but I'd be hesitant to take any kind of spinning disc to my paint job. Goof Off usually works pretty well at removing the residual adhesive.
