Emblum Removal


Recommended Posts

Got a heat gun and removed the emblums. All of them are just held on by glue so you can use a heat gun or blow dryer to heat the glue and remove the emblums.

**CAUTION**

If you are to attempt this make sure you feather the heat evenly and do not hold the heat gun/blow dryer on one spot too long... you risk burning the paint. Also be careful as the emblums will be hot.

Once you have the letters off you can use something like a credit card to remove the glue. Nail polish remover works good to remove the rest with some elbow grease.

Make sure you throw some wax on the area you apply the nail polish to protect the paint.

Looks Good!

Another method I have had good luck with is using Goo-Gone. I put it on the back side of what I want to remove and

let it sit a minute or so. I then lift an edge and add more Goo-Gone as it comes off the panel. With a little patience

it comes off in one piece and with all residue off the vehicle.

I like the clean look of a bare tailgate. It also makes folks wonder what they are looking at too! LOL!

Thanks man!

Yea this method took a while and probably isnt the easiest but certainly still an option considering you can use common house hold items. I always get looks from people that drive by, i removed the front chrome from my grill and had it coated flat black so there are no dodge markings on the outside of the car at all. I have been asked if it was a Mercedes like 3 times lol
