GINge Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 Only took 20 mins. My Acura was well over an hour as the glue they used did not want to come off..this was way easier, no googone requires, just some Mothers P1.

TeamDestruction Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 I debadged my trunk yesterday and after washing and waxing it I can still make out the Subaru on the left but all the other lettering is not noticable. Has anyone else had this happen to them. Also, what would be a good way of getting rid the outline? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grmorrow04 Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 I did this on my car a few weeks ago... Used dental floss to get the badges off. Rubbed the tape stuff off with my finger. Claybar'd the entire back section of the trunk lid. Polished with Meguiar's step 2 polish. Waxed with NXT past wax. I see no outline of any badge. FWIW, this was on a silver car.

TeamDestruction Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 I got rid of the outline. Took some effort but it is gone now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D_J Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 How old are your cars? Had mine for 1 1/2 years...not sure if it's too late to de-badge or if I'll get that outline too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark-V Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 I just debadged my 2005 BSM LGT and I had to use Meguiars ScratchX heavily to get rid of the outline of the letters. But it looks great now! Go for it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

havanahjoe Posted August 23, 2008 Share Posted August 23, 2008 I just debadged my DGM Spec b. Doesn't look like there will be an outline left. I still need to wash the car. Hopefully however long this truck lid was in the sun won't cause any marks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weewaywoo Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 [quote name='TrueWhiteBoy']Am I a bad person for thinking about only taking off the 2.5 GT?[/quote] I don't think so. I think that removing the "2.5 GT" helps make your car a real sleeper! When another driver comes up on your vehicle from the rear, they can't tell that you've got a turbocharged vehicle. They can't see the hoodscoop, so they have no idea that you can give them a run for their money... (not that I'm advocating street racing, speeding, or any similar behavior) :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D_J Posted December 21, 2008 Share Posted December 21, 2008 Finally de-badged my wagon...by hand in the warm sun. I just was very careful to remove each letter and most of goo while removing each piece. After washing the car the goo is gone. Just the faint outline remains. I don't think goo-gone will do much for outlines. Going to go buy some rubbing compound and see how it turns out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bicster Posted December 21, 2008 Share Posted December 21, 2008 [quote name='D_J']Going to go buy some rubbing compound and see how it turns out.[/quote] Don't use rubbing compound on any car with a clearcoat (i.e. most cars.) There are some polishing compounds that are safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperCleanLGT Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 Rubbing compond did not take the outlines off my OBP. Nothing has so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D_J Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 Yeah I still have a faint outline. I plan on doing another round of goo-gone. Then wax again. It's only noticeable at certain angles if you look closely. I think the best thing to do is buy a polisher or pay a detailer to buff it out. Pro's probably won't charge that much just to buff-out the rear hatch area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
