ok, heres the idiots guide. ive been debadging for 20 + years. yer im old

best thing is a bit of garden wire, the kind thats covered with a protective sleave to stop it rusting. you dont even need hot water/hairdrier etc. just slip the wire under one corner of the letter or badge and pull it across like a cheese wire. no scratches !!! then just use tar remover and soak the remainder of the sticky stuff in it and gently rub it all off. if your lucky the sticky comes off in one go lol. i suppose warm water would help a bit..

simples - even a mongoose could do it

I took them off last night, bit of a nightmare at the beginning....but it looks nice and clean now and polished up well.

I used a credit card and slid them off from underneath.

To get rid of the glue I used "sticky stuff remover", worked a treat. Rinsed the paint over and over with water and rubbed the surface clean with a soft cloth.


Then polished it and buffed it off. No marks

nice one mate, not too difficult not sure about the credit card lol. unless its out of date.

Is white spirit not paint stripper?

lol..

NO White spirit is a weak solvent/oil that can disolve wet paint. nothing at all like paint stripper.Paint stripper is a corrosive that can eat dry or baked on paint. White spirit is very good at removing tar spots and sticky marks from car paint and does not damage car paint even if left for hours.

as said before, I used ordinary dental floss to remove mine. Moving i back and forth and came off no problem at all.

Really easy to do
