Heya Guys (& Gals)..

I Had A Go At Debadging The 180 At The Weekend.. But The Previous Owner Has Obviously Had The Pug Badge Fall Off At Some Point & Super Glued It Back On and Now Im Left With The Foam Backing Rock Solid On My Car Still

Anyone Got Any Hints As To What Might Get This Off Without Ruining The Paintwork??

Cheers Peeps!! =]

Dab some petrol over it to see if it will soften the glue.
A good brand of tar and glue remover might also do it.

Use a hair dryer to soften it.

Hair drier and a bit of tar remover should loosen it, then paint renovator and a bit of polish to freshen it up.

Get some decent bug/tar remover. Autoglym is the stuff I use. Soak the pads in that and they should start to come away. Obviously don't scratch away at it though or try and use any form of lever because 9/10 you will gouge the paint off
