Debaging
So i Started Debadging my car yesterday got all the badges off and it started raining, and its still raining. What are some of the better products to remove the left over adhesive from the badges, I'v already tried Wd-40 and doesn't work very well, I bought some goo gone today aswell as some goof off but I read that goof off may harm my paint. I;v just applied some goo gone and its not to bad was wondering if there is someting better? and if goof off will harm my paint 01 grand prix

FYI its "debadging", unless you're taking an air suspension out of your car .
On my buddy's Jetta we used a hair dryer and dental floss to remove the badges, then cleaned up the residue with goo gone. Be sure to wash her good and wax with a good quality was after to protect it.

i used to use a product in my field called acrosol made by kent. it is not damaging to paint and will remove any type of adhesive without damaging surfaces. its an industrial product so i`m not sure if its available for retail.
acetone will do the trick for stubborn glues but most likley it will damage painted surfaces. also try rubbing alcohol.

Brake clean? Doesn't it say in pretty obvious wording that it should NOT touch any painted surface? I know brake fluid is bad bad for paint but I'm pretty sure brake clean is too since it's a powerful solvent. Goof Off is a solvent too so don't use that.
I've used Goo Gone for several applications like this including removing window tint residue. Works well, the trick is to wipe it on a few times and then give it a couple of minutes to 'soak' into the adhesive. That's what softens it. After that its a WHOLE lot easier to remove the residue than if you just try to apply it and immidiately wipe.
