Well I tried my Nevadull and still didnt help. Here is a pic of what we are talking about

 

weed if you can get your hands on a buffer with the foam pad and some polish that will come right out in seconds. I did myne with goof off and my finger nails and had ghosting then had someone else try to figure out where the emblems were on my truck, they couldnt

 

Ive got a buffer and foam pad. What polish or compound did you use

 

i used some kind of meguires polish i got from autozone. it was a tan colored bottle. not my favorite stuff but it works. if you want something really good. Get Norton Liquid ice, this is the best stuff i have ever used. Its a compound and a polish just buff with your wool pad then switch to the foam and finish the job. Not sure where u can get it tho my uncle gets it from his body shop supplier.

 

^^^yea what Mark said. from that pic i wouldnt say its residue as much as it is the "new" exposed paint in comparison to the paint that has been exposed to sun and elements for however long. I would try a polish first and if that doesnt work go to a scratch remover. Meguiars has some good polishes that come in steps. For example, scratch remover, polish 2, polish 1, and sealer/wax. If you have a porter cable (which i highly recommend) it will make your life easy.

 

Heres an example of the the stuff i was talking about. They are numbered (check top right corner of bottle) and make it pretty fool proof. (obviously dont use a pad that looks like this...i was buffing a headlight and it snagged on one of those little nipple things).

Here was my results (on my camaro)

 

Holy Crap! I thought you were looking into a mirror there for a second!

 

Ya so ive been trying to get this back badge off of my truck for like an hour, cant be done. Already broke off half of the silver part and my fingers are falling off. Debadging is so fun.

 

now thats shiny!!!!!

 

honda, do you have any fishing line lying around? Thats what I used...came off without a problem. A heat gun with some goo gone will defiantly reduce the amount of effort needed to remove the glue.
