How do I remove autowrecker writing?

Hey bought a new trunk, debaged it all and cleaned it.
But i still can't get the autowreckers markers from the stock / model numbers off.
Tried Goo gone, and also warm water and soap.

Anyone know any tricks to get this stuff off?

Thank you.

Some Scratch-X should take it off, pulls out swirl marks nicely.

If its actual vinyl lettering I would use a razor blade and ALOT of soapy water. Don't gouge the paint with the blade and wash the car before hand.

I'd stay away from paint with razor blades, really easy to mess up the paint.

Checked out some stuff on google, the safest way i could find with products i didn't have to go buy really was using WD-40, took almost an hour and a lot or rubbing but eventually got it all off. There has to be a better method though. Anyways, thank you for the responses.

Try a clay bar, not sure if it will work but it does help remove tar and bug guts.
