Emblem adhesive leftover

[DinosGSR]

During a car wash at home, I managed to loosen the "Acura" emblem on the back of my car, so I took it off. What is left is a hard, sometimes tacky substance that does NOT want to come off (I`m shying away from using a boxcutter :D ), what would be paint-safe and strong enough to remove this substance?



I don`t plan on putting it back on, trying to go "Emblemless" for a cleaner look (keeping my A symbols though). I have some paint (colors match) and some bondo to cover the holes, or is that too much effort for such a small gain?

While I`m at it, figured I`d ask but I probably already know the answer: Do I need a repaint to fix this clearcoat peeling?

how do you plan to plug the holes? bondo and touch up paint? you would still need some sort of clear coat too



i used some 3m adhesive remover to remove mine but wd-40 would work too



if it was me, i`d just order a new acura badge





oh and yes you need to re-clear that spot :)

Would spraying some clear on that spot really fix it? Would it be very noticible, or would I be better off with a complete repaint? I`ve never sprayed clear, so.. :)



As for the badge, yeah I was gonna bondo over the holes and clear it, I did the same to my front license plate holes, they came out very nicely.

As far I know clear could only be sprayed on before the paint cures. I was thinking of taking emblems off, but spent so much time thinking that now I`m scared the paint will be uneven.
