Post by GeorgeMorris »

So some people use floss? some people use a credit card?

also people say if you heat up the glue the badge leaves it peal off but some people say you need a chemical to remove it

Heat it up first as when the glue is warm the more will come off

I use a Stanley blade to pry it off but this can damage the paint so most use a bit of cord

When the badge is off heat the glue again and use either detar or some hot soapy water to loosen it up, then just slide a credit card across it and keep putting more detar on it until it's all off
If it doesn't fit,
force it,
If it breaks,
It needed replacing anyway :thumbs:

Take a look at my 1.2 silver moredoor log im putting up a small guide as I think I found quite a good way to get it done without needed toffee wheels or too much effort
