hopefully it was enough to make bead. if not you have to go through the motions, stoners tarminator, 3m adhesive remover etc etc plastic razor blade will help, think you might need a much stronger solvent though, never delt with it, just giving you ideas
I was looking around and someone suggest mr.clean magic eraser and maybe some good ol` wd-40?..
searched around..seems acetone and nitromethane will take it off..but nobody ever posts if either worked out for them...Well bright and early I`ll go grab some acetone....HOPEFULLY..i can just use a cuetip and get it off..:(
2500 grit sandpaper on the end of a pencil (cutout to the eraser), and a Porter Cable...
i doubt tarminator is going to get that stuff off
just tried acetone and rubbing alch. neither worked..:(..this is upsetting...uhmm only other things are the mr.clean magic eraser and nitromethane. But what exactly is nitromethane?

Try lacquer thinner
Try lacquer thinner
hrmm..I read in other previous posts..that lacquer thinner may be too strong..But I`ll try that too. I called the actual glue company and the tech guy said they don`t provide any solvent to remove it, but suggest either trying to freeze it with ice or take a damp rag and letting it sit over 24hrs and it will weaken the glue. The ice didnt really work..but i was thinking of getting an electronic air duster and flipping it upside down and shooting the spot of glue to freeze it. And kind of tap it to see if the glue falls off.

I`d try lacquer thinner before I tried to quick freeze the paint. Paint doesn`t like sudden changes in temperature...

Go inside and grab some of your wife`s nail polish remover.
Worked for me. [Don`t ask...:chuckle: ]

also I think super glue is a poor choice
it has no shock resistance one good tap or too many potholes and it`s gone

No hobby lobby close by..closest is about 45 mins. Not that i don`t want to go but the link i posted in my previous post shows a super glue remover. I wonder if that`d work.

The emblem itself pops into place..just wanted to give it some "help".
