Default REMOVING EMBLEMS

WHAT IS THE BEST WAY TO REMOVE THE EMBLEMS OR TAGS OFF MY TRUCK. I PULLED ONE OFF AND IT LEFT ALOT OF GLUE THERE HAS TO BE A BETTER WAY. I HAVE HEARD OF FISHING LINE AND A HEAT GUN IS THAT THE BEST WAY?

use a lot of patience and a simple hairdryer. Oh yeah try using a wax based dental floss to seperate the badges. Finally use regular rubbing alcohol to take off any residual glue. I plan on doing mine this weekend.

Yeah, dental floss and heat works. Careful that what you use to take the glue off doesn't damage the clear coat. Give it a good wax job after or the area you treated (with alcohol etc) might fade or look bad!

Careful on the heat, you can soften the paint and take off more than you planned. I just parked mine in the sun on a 90 degree day and slowly pulled them off. There is stuff called Goo Gone that worked real good on removing the sticky crap. And yes WAX!

next time you buy a vehicle make the dealer take it off at the dealership. If they scratch it they fix it....I scammed to take off the badges by walking up to the sales rep asking him and when he was fumbling around with the answer I walked up to the detailer before delivery and asked him. The detailer ripped off the Hemi Sport sticker....too late after that.......Ha, Ha, Ha.......paid enough money for the truck especially here in Hawaii...I don't want to advertise Dodge unless they lower the price or give me stock in company...............The only logo I left on the Hemi Sport was the ram in the front
