Removing badge glue.
#2
Any decent tar remover would do the trick. I tend to use Tardis but have used Auto Glym Intensive Tar Remover before which is adequate and often available more readily from local motor factors.

I've used 3M Sticky Stuff Remover (can be found in Wilkos, Halfrauds etc. for about £3-5) or as said before, autoglym's intensive tar remover, just wipe a bit over the area on a cloth and leave it to lift the glue from the paint then give it a wash off

I tried all of the above and it was taking forever because it was so thick with foam/adhesive. In the end I got a kettle full of water and trickled it over one 'letter' at a time then with a scraper wrapped in plenty of layers of cloth rubbed the adhesive off whilst it was hot and maliable. Took a couple of goes for each one but came off a treat.
As someone else said wax afterwards but keep an eye on the scraper to make sure it doesnt wear through the cloth and straight into your paint! You have been warned!!!

Heated badges with mrs hair dryer,
Peeled off with fingers and nails as much as poss,
Re heated excess glue with dryer which helped peel off a little more,
Micro fibre cloth and a small amount of t cut with elbow grease at this point,
Then polish,
Then an old clay bar with detail spray,
Then more polish and wax. With the results as above. Like I say it's effort and patience more than anything.
