need way to repair paint?
so this all started when i took off my embelems and the adhesive was still os so someone said try goof off, so i did it worked but it also took off the clear coat of the paint as well, so i stopped, so is there anything i can do myself, or do i need to take it to a body shop and say can you fix this and this cause i also have scratches on the bottom left when someone rubbed my car as well as a parking sticker which im still unable to get off, and other things on my back bumper and trunk, my whole rear is messed up, anything i can do?

i its been more trouble then its worth, i guess i should have just gotten it professionaly done, butn ow it already does look like crap
That sucks, if you ever remove any stuff from your car like that, I would recommend using goo gone. As for the touch up, I wouldn't use touch up paint. Im assuming your civic is blue or black, it wouldn't be bad if it was white or silver. I had a problem where I accidentaly got super glue on my civic. It came off the bumper, but there was some right under my plates. I used the nail polish to remove it off the rear bumper, but when I tried to get it off the paint right under my plate, it removed everything around it but some paint. I used touch up paint on my blue civic and it looked crappy as hell. It looked better without touch up paint, but oh well. Id just see if you can get some clearcoat on it to make it shiny again and leave it at that.
