Default Removing Chevy emblems.

Does anyone have any good tips for taking the emblems off of the truck with no damage to the paint.

3M Sticker and Emblem remover that they use at paint shops... Won't ruin your clear coat or paint like the other stuff people use.

wait for a warm summer day or provide your own heat in the form of a heat gun or blowdryer. Then use rubbing alcohol to cut the remaining glue. Come behind with your choice of cleaner wax to finish it off.

Yeah that 3M stuff is awesome. I didnt know about it when I did mine and I used Goo Gone and spent like an hour and a half trying to get the glue off. With the 3M stuff the glue almost melts off the car.

I used goo-gone and a blow drier. I did every badge and the door molding, took a few hours. My "LS" emblem's came right off with my fingers one hot summer day. I guess Ill look into that 3M Sticker and Emblem remover stuff when I take the rain guards off. Lookin to get some in-chanel ones.
