ok.... hey guys i was wondering if anybody has de badge their xj .....i just wanted to see if its just glue tht was used in 1994....before i take them off....thanx

 

Just a glue.

They sell and eraser wheel at autozone that will be good for taking the glue off afterwards.

 

goo gone works pretty good as well - in case you can't shell out 25 bucks for the wheel - or your AZ is retarded like mine and doesn't have it.

 

Ok...thx

 

FWIW, a piece of fishing line makes a nice little saw to cut the badge free from the paint without damaging the paint. Work it in behind the badge and saw back and forth.

 

you know... I wish I would have thought of that when I was removing my rocker trim

 

Pure genius. I've always used my industrial heat gun and fought them off with a plastic tool the glass shops use.

 

ya...thts wht i was gonna do

 

gonna have to try this

 

Same here! Trying it tomorrow!

 

I can't take credit for it. It was in the instructions with some replacement badges I bought for a Corvette. Fishing line or dental floss.
(No mention if it needs to be mint or regular)
I tried it with some 30# test line and sure enough. Worked. Sadly it's the most use I've gotten out of my tackle box so far this summer.

 

I've attemped this and have had no luck but its wasn't a jeep I was trying to get a badge off of

 

Putting a little gas on a rag helps take off the sticky stuff too! Im not sure if it damages paint. Mine was already terrible so yeah!

 

no gas works great... just the most expensive adhesive remover you'll ever use nowadays! lol

 

I agree with cruiser. Heat gun and a plastic spackling spatula to lift and then peel.
