I took off one of the badges on my car with the standard hair dryer / goof-off / elbow grease method but it left behind a tiny ring of dirt around where the badge used to be. There is also a similar line of dirt around the sunroof where the wind deflector used to be. To be clear, you can't feel this dirt, it is almost like it has embedded itself into the paint.

What is the proper way to get rid of this ring of dirt?
