I need help! what will take this blemish from my baby!! There is dealership badge adhesive that will not buff or rub out with water, car wash lather and rub, or anythind non abrasive i can think of! Its the size of a watch face just above the 350Z badge and it looks bad cause its glue and it holds dust. looks bad. what will remove this, without removing paint and clear coat. I am stuck and its like a huge festering pimple on my otherwise gorgeous black beauty. thanks. please help!

 

Try Goo Gone.

 

are you nuts? won't that chew paint like a sweet-tart in coke?

 

Nope - totally harmless. I've used it when I removed the dealer badge and removed residue left from masking tape that melted on after a day in the sun.

Trust me - nobody is more AR about their Z than me and I wouldn't have used it if it wasn't already proven to be harmless.

Try this first - use a blow dryer on the residue and get it hot and try removing it with a fingernail. The heat should soften it enough to get it to pull loose. If anything is still left behind, use the Goo Gone.

 

If that happened to me, I *might* use it as an excuse to paint the car a custom color...

 

Just trust Dave. He knows what he's talking about

 

u try blow dryer..make it warm/melted so it will come off easier..nevery tried it b4 but i read somewhere that people have done this..goo gone i tried works pretty good ..doesnt hurt paint

 

yup, hairdry it, peel it off and goo gone it...goo gone doesnt do anything wrong to the paint... that how i debadged all my buddys cars... but be careful not to nick the paint when it is hot from the hairdryer, also once u use goo gone, wash that area w soap and water liek u would wash ur car

 

Hey guys, thanks for the goo-gone advice, it worked awesome! off and perfect in 5 seconds. I washed it with water and soap well afterwards and things are as good as new! many thanks.

 

WD-40 also works just as well.

 

Yep.
