just take a blowdrier to the emblem you wanna shave.. then take floss and gently slide it behind the emblem.. after your done, take some WD-40 on a rag and wipe the sticky glue stuff off. once your done with that, just wax that area

WD-40 was designed by a company contracted by NASA to design a waterproofing and lubricating agent to prevent ICBM's(inter continental Ballistic Missles) from rusing in their silo's.. the WD stands for Water Displacement... the 40 stands for the batch number that they finally got right [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

you can find it any hardware or auto supply store for about $3 a can.

WD-40 is available at places like Wal-Mart, etc, and also at any auto parts store. It comes in a blue metal spray can with a yellow and blue logo that has WD-40 on it. It's supposedly an "all-purpose" thing that cleans, lubricates, etc. Runs you about $3 at the most.

-mohawk: so that's why it's called wd-40 [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

What in the heck are you going to use nail polish for? Do you mean nail polish remover? Just as guess, but if that's what you meant wouldn't that be a little harsh on your paint job?

Mohawk, thanks for the factoid.

Nail Polish remover is acetone. I twill soften the paint. Don't get any of that stuff even near your car.

Nail Polish !!!![IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]

I did the blow dryer and WD-40 method and it worked fine for me.

 

when i shaved mine, i didn't even need anything to take off the extra "glue." it just came off with some rubbing. then i just washed and waxed the area....took about 10 tops from blow dryin to waxing.....looks so much better.....

ONce you shave the emblem, what would you use to put it back on?

try an appoxy first, so it won't hurt the paint (available at pepboys) or some sort of crazy glue that will get the back on
