Debadging Help.. urgent! kinda...

I just got done debadging the back(well just the bowtie) and there is an outline of the bowtie still visible. Now I know it isn't the paint because the center of the bowtie is the same color as the rest of the car(it isn't faded). It is just a faint outline that seems kinda cloudy around the outside of the bowtie.

How can I get rid of this?

Aight. Thanks.. You had the same problem? It isn't really adhesive, it's like kind of a cloudy-looking substance that is just left over.

And did you use the pinnacle stuff? or what.....

Yeah give it a good buff and wax it'll look like it was never there, same thing happened to me, also when I removed my door moldings, I buffed it but you could see a faint outline when the sun hit it just right, in this case you might have to repeat the process, but don't worry you'll be fine

it's just the difference in the paint, get it buffed. Either hand rub it with buffing compound or buff it with a buffer not a orbital polisher
