a credit card will help you remove some of the adhesive also. Patience is also very important, especially on the rear bowtie.

What did you use to scrub the glue off with the goo gone... like a regular rag or what??? Because I don't want to risk scatching my paint.

I soaked a rag in goo gone and held it the the spot for a couple minutes, then used my thumb to carefully work the glue off. I immediately washed that area to remove all the goo gone.

There's a product out there called BioAct that will take all of the sticky stuff off, and won't harm the paint. It'll also take any tree sap and bugs off as well. It's basically industrial goo gone.
