any suggestions

Hope you don't mind me editing your post and thread title a bit buddy, it should help you get a quicker answer!


I'd try autoglym tar removal; it's pretty good at getting most things off, and IIRC that's what I used for my dt debadge way back when

[C.A.R.]

Autoglym Intensive Tar Remover (called exactly that)

Trick is to soak the area in this stuff (which is very runny, like water) and leave it for a few seconds, then go at it with either the sharp edge of a squeegee or a tough cloth (which will get f*cked up so don't use a good one).

Works wonders.

I removed some meridian badges from a guys car with nothing more than a screw driver (careful hands) and a rag with water.

Meth spirits is really good. Finally got mine off after a year of trying other stuff along the rid strips on my old car and tried meths this weekend and came of so easy.

Your all wrong, the correct tool for this job is a fudge wheel (often called an eraser wheel or a pin stripe remover)

Get them on ebay

I promise you there is much much much much less effort involved than using AG ITR or similar and much less chance of damaging your paint than using a paint gun.

Orbital sander

I got some universal sticky tar remover stuff from halfords for £5 or something. Removes bubble gum too apaprently. Havent got round to using it yet though!

No I just put it on a cloth or spray it on by putting a top of a spray cleaner bottle and the adhesive just rubs off

I just use an old Subway card to get the badge off and thinners to get the adhesive off, jobdone.
