if you use the blow gun be careful not to burn the paint. i de badge cars everyday what works best is getting those strap things people put around boxes made of plastic and slide it under the badge then using something like prepsol on the glue to get that off

the black stuff maybe urethane thats what some panel shops use when they run out of double sided tape, to get that off the easy way is to use a rubber wheel on the end of a drill, you can buy these for around 20 bucks at your local auto paints store.

using this i can usuall debage most cars under 5 mins with all glue removed, very handy tool

My dad and I removed the badges of my Holden Commodore Executive Series II (makes me wish I bought a car with less letters and stickers on the back...) .

The 'Executive' and 'Series II' badges came off great, 'Commodore' we have managed to take off some paint, so I have to go get some touch up paint, and the 'Holden' seems to either have scratches or some glue left there, we really can't tell what it is because it doesnt feel like either, look s abit dodgey in some lighting.

Any idea how to fix up the 'Holden' side?

Ow also we used floss instead of fishing line...no one goes fishing in our family lol
