Removing Badges

themightygez · 08-01-2007, 23:32

Hi,
I'm looking to remove the Fabia and Skoda badge on the back of my car and mov my vRS badge to where the Skoda badge is now. Any tips? Also does anyone know what best to use to re-attach the vRS badge back on the car? Whilst I'm on, am I right in thinking the silver vRS paint is Diamond Silver Metallic?

That's all for now!

Cheers

I use boiled/boiling water from a kettle but alot of people use a hairdryer, both do the same thing to soften up the adhesive tape..usually you can just pull 'em off or lever them off with an old credit card.

Yeah I used a hairdryer to soften the adhesive and then just pulled the badges off. Cleaned up any residue with tar remover
