#19100, "Front Mitsu emblem removal"




          

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.

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
