A dab of white spirit on a soft cloth?

when I put new badges on mine I used nail varnish remover to get the sticky residue off. Worked a treat and didn't damage the paint. Failing that anything alcohol will work. Spray it with lynx then buff it off again. Sounds stupid but it works!

I've used halfords tar and bug remover on old badge glue .... been great so far.

Tar and bug mate.....spray it on ... leave it for a few minutes and it'll come off.

petrol works too, but it takes polish off with it,so ud need to polish it after

buy a pack of gorilla wipes and never look back. i recommended them to a wrc team and they go through pallets of them now. they remove anything and i mean anything yet if you just be careful the paint will be fine. i removed superglue from a previous car with one and swear by them. very cheap too and a pack will last ages. youll probs clean your entire car interior etc with them if you try them

i'm sure that i saw a possability of innuendo in the title, but however...

i'll agree with what Mick says.
