19100, Front Mitsu emblem removal
Posted by 98EclipseGirl, Apr-06-02 09:25 AM
How should I go about getting the emblem off the front of my car. Should I use a heatgun, or just pry it off? Also, what can I expect underneath . . . will the paint be messed up or will there br any gummy residue to remove? Thanks.

heat will help, and ya there may be sum adhesive (sticky crap) chillen.. u can use goo gone, or nail polish remover, and a lil elbow grease...

good luck

To remove the stickers on the back:

- heat the decal with a hair dryer
- peel away decal
- clean up the gummy stuff with Bug & Tar Remover

No damage or anything to the paint, you will be happy.

an easier way would be to go to a car wash and hold the high pressure water up to it. i did it and they came off in like 3 seconds
