Im trying to take off the emblems anybody have any tips to take off all the glue left over for the paint

 

goo be gone

 

goo gone is good. Just watch out. My 01 was a bitch, paint is chipped under one badge and clear was chipped under the other. =(

 

rubbing alcohol works also

 

thank you

 

Good to see I wasn't the only one to run into that problem. Mine has some scratches were I took the silverado emblem off.

 

The "booger rollin' " method works as goods as any. A hair dryer or heat gun to warm it up...and then roll away!

 

LOL. yep, it works.

 

I didn't bother with a hair dryer or heat gun. It's warm enough in texas I used a rag with hot water and just pressed in on the emblems for a few seconds. The sticker type peel right off with almost no residue. Use fishing line to "saw" hard badges off. Like BADMOFO said, roll the majority of the adhesive off. Use WD40 or GooGone for the rest of the adhesives. WD40 also works wonders with getting off tar and bug guts.

 

The booger rolling method is best for your paint. Alcohol can fog clear coats, and Ive heard of go gone doing the same on some clears. Heat em up, roll, then cleanerwax it.

My truck used to have ugly red badges all over it (click on sig pic for my cardomain and some old pics.) Its all debadged and sexy now.
