i was wanting to take my emblems off to paint them but i dont have a heat gun or hair dryer..so will goo gone or something take them off ok?? and also what type of paint should i use? thanks for any help

 

Your going to need the heat gun / hair dryer to get them off.. the goo gone is used to get the sticky stuff off after the badge is removed..

 

ahh that sucks..

 

Dental floss and tar/bug remover. Use the dental floss as a saw and it will work, only way i do it.

 

oh alright, so you just pour some on let it sit and saw it with floss? seems easy enough

 

Out of your whole house, you don't have a hair dryer?

 

Yup and this is 100X faster than a blow dryer, it's up to you how you want to do it, dump bug/tar remover on the emblem and let it sit or saw off then rub off. I did my whole car in like 10 mins.

 

nope im living in my apt by myself for school and my hair is short so i have no need for one. my sis has one but she's 240 miles away

i'll have to go get some tar remover and get to works..thanks for the help

 

Why don't you just get some dental floss and try to do it w/o some kind of heat?

You probably could do it.

 

i wasnt sure if i could, thats why i asked but it seems like i can so i think im going to

 

No problem..

 

Oh

Yeah, the heat just makes it get soft so it's easier.

It might take a lil more elbow grease, but nothing to much of a hassle.

 

It's safer to the paint especially on new paint, but just as great for old.

 

My paint never peels. So it wouldn't matter for me.

 

Ask zach for dental floss. He doesn't use it

 

He's right, I don't.

My teeth are perfect.

 

I had trouble without heat... the more heat i used.. the easier it came off...

I guess i just got impatient trying to do it without the hair dryer.. But it would have taken me a while without it.

 

Perfectly effed up LOL

 

haha thats just plain wrong

 

Ha ha

He knows I'm ****** wit him

 

 

if you have fishing wire use it instead of floss. floss does work but not as great. i started debading it at my bfs house with fishing wire and it was working good then the next day at my house i was finishing it with floss and it was a bitch to do. its not as strong as the wire so it kept breaking =[

 

lol tell me about it..i was getting so pissed

there's no way it took you ten minutes with floss lol took me at least two hours.


anyways i got it done and it looks pretty nice, might paint some of them on sunday..here is all of them



the rear bowtie was the worse to get off probly took an hour

 

lol so was i and the more mad i got the more it kept breaking
and it was cutting up my hands, floss FTL

 

lol jeeze.....ROOKIES!

use an old credit card.

didnt even need a blow dryer. came off easy.

then peel as much as u can off with ur fingers. then goo gone the son of a bitch till clean

then put a lil wax on the spots.

goo gone eats the wax job.

but u got to cake on the goo gone.
