De-Badged boot - Bear with me!

[dvid]

I know this has been done to death but I am starting to think I have made a bad decision!!

Ever since I took the badge off the back I have been left with some gluey residue which just won't budge, tried a good wash and some bug and tar remover, any other ideas?! There is also an outline where the badge used to be so I dont know if again that's just residue crap I havent got off or damage

Should I just get another badge and put it back on? Like a numpty I threw old one away or is there a miracle cure?

mine is the same!

I have replaced mine as the old one was peeling and just like you some of the residue will not be moved so I just stuck a new badge on top of it instead.

I took mine off had the same problem......back on it went!!!

[afcbadam]

roll a ball of blue tack over the glue, sometimes picks some up. and try heating it up with a hair dryer, makes it alot easier to get glue off things.

i T cut mine and it came off great after a good going over with a good wax and left for a few weeks the colour balanced out as well

Scratch-X is better for that level not T-Cut, another is a tar remover type but not sure on name.

[Fudgepacker]

what about the clay kit that might shift it

[arwilson80]

I'd try the clay and give it a good polish after... If it can move tar, sap, etc i'm sure it'll move glue residue.

I've used a bug cleaner from Halfords and some polish to get the badges that were on mine sorted.

I left the bug cleaner to soak into the glue for about 2-3 minutes then it practically just wiped off.
