Default Glue under emblems...

My LX badge was fallin' off so I jus took it the rest of the way off... anyone know of anything I can use to get the ugly glue off underneath w/o harming the finish?

Thanks in advance for any insight...

It should be adhesive and not glue, trying using some Goo Gone, which can be easily purchased at some hardware stores, it should take off the adhesive with a little elbow grease. Use 3M tape to get the emblem back on if you like.

I use a product called DeSolve-It. It's totally safe. You can buy it at any grocery store, Wal-Mart, et cetera. It's good for all kinds of clean-ups. Good stuff to have around....

I used goo gone when I took my Civic EX sticker off my trunklid. Just get a soft rag and put a little on there and rub on the adhesive, that stuff will just come right off. After you're done, wash that section to get rid of any oils from the goo gone and apply a little bit of wax where the sticker used to be.

It should be personal lubricant and not grease...
