Badge removal
Ok so my driver side Z28 badgewas comin off and iremoved em bothso i canbuy some new badges how can i get the glue or w/e off? i used some stuff thats supposed to remove tar and tree sap and it didnt come off.. are there any special tricks?
Heat it up with a heat gun. Don't apply the heat too long or you could start to burn the paint. Take some heavy (200-400 pound) fishing line and some gloves once you've heated it up and drag it behind the badge. Should come right off. If you don't have a real heat gun you can heat it with a hair dryer (weak!) or leave it in the sun on a warm day.
they make adhesive remover? go to a parts store and ask for it...they have it. done it several times. no matter what though, you're still going to see where the badges were so at least you'll know exactly where to put the new badges
i like the idea of putting the new badges over it lol. I took em off used this sap n tar remover for cars washed my car and it just looks like the paints gone south.. i plan on having my car repainted soon so i guess when they go to paint it they will just sand it off and i can put the badges on after that. Looks pretty slick without the badges imo... atleast on the side that came off cleanly lol.
