You might want to polish the surface after, you can still see the outlines on the back when you're finished @ 3:04 . The longer those badges have been on the car, the more obvious it will be without a polish.

The chemicals used in adhesive remover can cause discoloration and dulling of the paint surface and can also damage the protective clear coat on the car. Also, If you ran the eraser wheel on anything other than low speed and/or stayed in one spot too long you probably burned some of your clear coat.

[@whateverprecisely]

Really great video with simple and quick instructions! However I do have one question, I was able to see some residue just on the edges, would that come off with more glue remover or a normal wash or a power wash or just time?

[@J19ves]

Thanks very much! Most videos seem to just show the rubber wheel on the end of a drill method which I’m not comfortable with due to the risk of taking paint lacquer off with too much force or lack of skill etc so I’m going with hand peeling the excess residue and adhesive remover👍🏻

[@robertfugate5827]

Very good video did have a hard time understanding what type of solution to use. Would had been nice to show pictures of the container label or type what it is in the video.

[@AndrewLeet92]

I layer the masking tape on one of the sides of the emblem I'm about to remove. Prying it off will make it dig into the paint on the opposite side, at least in my past experience.

I have the X5M competition and want to remove all model/name badges from both interior and exterior. How do you do about removing the X5M Competition badge from a carbon interior center console - without losing the finish on the carbon trim that lies underneath? I would like to remove the badge and keep the nice, consistent finish of that glossy carbon trim. Thanks, J.

[@corpuzone]

These are all good methods. The last one would the cleanest but you have to be extra careful not to put too much pressure and speed. You can burn the paint or worst.. what about adding wax toward the end to polish the outline of the emblems?

[@luciusn21]

How new was this car when you did this? I want to do this to a 2011 but I'm worried the paint under the badge will look different than the surrounding paint due to the age of the paint.

[@MikeDraws]

can you do a video on re-installing badges after the car is wrapped

[@idkchocolate]

Agreed

[@bGzzzzz]

First method seems the simplest and quickest. The third method appears to be additional effort for no reason as you end up having to use the adhesive remover….so it’s one extra step ie eraser attachment for the sake of using one… Cause realistically after removing you’re going to end up buffing the area to blend everything in.

[@JamesHamp93]

I've had some good results with meguiars ultimate compound, it's not the cheapest but you can use it for other things. It removes like 99.9% of it but in a funny light, on a funny angle you can still catch a slight glimpse. You might have some luck with a cheap car polish or something similar though.

[@Granolaboy1]

@@JamesHamp93 I ended up using a 1600 grit sandpaper to wet sand as much until as I could before I ran into “oh, sh!t, now I need a new paint job!” That helped, then wet over Meguiar’s compound, the polish, then wax. You can’t tell I sanded some of clear coat, but the outline of “Element SC” is still there…etched in the paint. Like yours, at a certain angle, you can’t see it. Up close, you can’t miss it!

[@JamesHamp93]

@@Granolaboy1 I read the first half and thought 'oh shit hes gona need a new paint job!' But then you said about the compound and polish and you literally took the words out my mouth haha! What colour is your car by the way? My A5 is like a Daytona grey and the A3 I had before was also grey, slightly lighter in colour. The A3 was a 2006 and that was much more visible in certain lights/angles but on my A5, which is nearly 10 years newer, you can barely see it unless you look for it in but the lighting and angle has to be just right.

[@Granolaboy1]

@@JamesHamp93 my 07 Honda Element is Nighthawk Black Pearl. Next spring/summer I’m going to brave it and that spot myself…sand it down completely, prime it, spray with Nighthawk Black Pearl spray and clear coat it. The videos make it seem too easy….hey, I can do that! What could go wrong? 🤣Hopefully I don’t f@ck it up! Have you tried using clay bar before compound/polish/wax? Doing all 4 steps is tedious as can be, but the paint looked so beautiful afterwards and felt oh so smooth!

[@JamesHamp93]

@@Granolaboy1 Ahh nice, that's the same as the Type R black if I'm not mistaken? Oh fair enough. I wouldn't have the balls to do that myself as I have no confidence in painting my own car but if you reckon you could manage it I wish you all the luck in the world. Chris Fix has a video where he completely restores and paints part of his car, with a spray can, and it comes out amazingly well. He gets rid of the orange peel effect by using some 5000 grit sandpaper I think. It looks amazing and he makes it seems super easy but I know i would go wrong somewhere 😂 And when I compounded and polish the entire car I did clay bar it all first and the colour has held up really well tbh. I try to not do it much as it does eat away at the clear coat if you over do it but maybe a full go over every year or 2 with regular washing and waxing keeps it looking good. When I took the badges off the back I didn't clay bar it because it was such a small area in comparison to my bonet/hood for example which is like speedboat long lol!

I don't have an outlet or any tools currently at my apt complex..thank you guys and great video, I'll be using these techniques too for any other badging I have.

[@JamesHamp93]

The longer the vehicle has had the emblems on the harsher the "outline" will be visible as the paint underneath will still be pretty much untouched. I use a touch of meguiars ultimate compound and buff it and it removes like 99.9% of it but on a funny angle in a funny light you can still catch a glimpse of it. You might get some luck using a cheap car polish and working it for a while.
