Boiling water and dental floss/ credit card.

Whats the best way to get the sticky stuff off, as I still have mine on from where I removed the Seat and 20VT badges

1. Hair Dryer To Soften the Sticky Backing
2. Dental Floss To Pull Off The Badge
3. Warm Water To Soften The Sticky Stuff
4. Use your nails to pick at it and what you can't pick off, use a credit card (gently) to scrape it.
5. Polish Up
6 Stick New Badges On

Nail varnish remover....and no it won't damage the paint

As said before spray a few coats of clear lacquer on to the new badges if you don't want them to tarnish again.
