Wash Posted November 13, 2011 Report Share Posted November 13, 2011 Debadged or the standard OEM badge, anything else just looks s**t IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slightly abrasive polish (t-cut will work but you don't need something that aggressive) and some ISO alcohol and it'll be as good as new Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaz Posted November 18, 2011 Report Share Posted November 18, 2011 T-Cut FTW here No need for T-cut unless it's really stuck on. May as well use a less abrasive polish first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickyZ Posted November 18, 2011 Report Share Posted November 18, 2011 No need for T-cut unless it's really stuck on. May as well use a less abrasive polish first. Saves time and hassle as you know T Cut will do it easily Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz Posted November 18, 2011 Report Share Posted November 18, 2011 Saves time and hassle as you know T Cut will do it easily It's like cutting a bread roll with a hacksaw. Yes it'll work, probably be quicker, but it's overkill and will probably do a lot of damage. http://www.detailingworld.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=24193 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YemiTheOne Posted October 22, 2012 Report Share Posted October 22, 2012 hmm, Thinking about this now as well for a possible cleaner look. But how exactly do you remove them? lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickyZ Posted October 22, 2012 Report Share Posted October 22, 2012 Gently lift them and use a credit card or similar to remove any left over glue then tidy as above HTH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz Posted October 22, 2012 Report Share Posted October 22, 2012 If you're a fisherman, fishing line works wonders and takes away the worry of scratching the paint with a credit card If not, I bet something like dental floss would be strong enough too. mjn 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YemiTheOne Posted October 22, 2012 Report Share Posted October 22, 2012 Oh it's simply glued on? Nice, shouldn't be too hard then, thanks RickyZ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenkus28 Posted October 22, 2012 Report Share Posted October 22, 2012 Another option is to use cable ties slide it under the badge and lift it up. Then use a normal household detergent to rub off the glue job done Using the phablet ever Gaz and YemiTheOne 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjn Posted October 22, 2012 Report Share Posted October 22, 2012 Dental floss works, but it snaps too easily. Fishing wire is the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YemiTheOne Posted October 22, 2012 Report Share Posted October 22, 2012 Does de-badging the car affect it when selling? Or do most people not really mind if the car is badgeless? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wash Posted October 22, 2012 Report Share Posted October 22, 2012 No, it won't affect selling in the slightest. Some cars even came debadged from the factory... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ Syxx Posted October 23, 2012 Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 Dental floss your best bet to remove it safely without scratching. Any of that residue left over can be removed with Colinite 476 as that stuff eats sticky bits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
