Default Best Way to Debadge?

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/74057/debadge_question.jpg"></center><p>Even after I told the dealership to de-badge my Audi, they not only left the badges on, but put in their own advertisement...which is unacceptable (I was not there to pick up the car and yell at them when I first saw it). Does anyone have any recommendations for what to use and how to remove them without damaging the paint? Thanks<ul><li><a href="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/74057/debadge_question.jpg">http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/74057/debadge_question.jpg</a</li></ul>

Also will remove the glue, but be sure not to heat the paint to much

make the dealer do it especially if you asked them to do it before taking delivery.

Default This is the best method in combination with a polish/wax to follow up.

Ifyou ahve a heat gun. If not, dental floss and goo gone work decently. Then follow up with polish/wax.
