Another De-badging question!

Hi all

Took the rear MG badge off the car yesterday, using the hair dryer and card technique and it worked really well, but there is still bit of gluey residue on the back is there anything that I can use (safely) to get this last bit off? Actually looks worse at the moment as you can see that there was clearly a badge there!

Cheers all

Scratch X is less aggressive than T-Cut. White spirit should be okay.

Panel Wipe?

I didn't like the look of the MASSIVE badge on the back, and, I bought some of those XPower stickers which made it look even worse, but when taking the sticker off it peeled some of the badge so I thought f£ck it! I like the de-badged look anyway

Currently it still has the ZS badges on the back, think I might keep those

Halfords surface cleaner works well - intended for cleaning repaired areas prior to spraying with aerosol.
