goo gone or similar is good, but it takes time. Heat may also help soften it up a bit

Simply heat the badges with a heat gun, and wait till the glue softens and then remove the badge. As simple as that.

Try using a clay bar with quick detailer spray.

This is all you need my friend, some heat. Let the car sit in the sun all day on a nice hot day and it will wipe right off.

Also, this very topic cam up just a few weeks ago, so please search next time.

Many auto parts stores do not carry allot of the 3m stuff.

Please dont use a magic eraser. You will need to buff and wax after and it's just not needed. If you would just take my advise you will see the adhesive will come off very easily with heat, soap and water.

This stuff works good, spray it, let it soak for awhile, repeat if necessary.

Use a product called bug and tar remover. It works great for that kind of stuff and also will not harm your paint. Just dab in on the glue spot and let it sit for a couple mins then rub off with towel and a little elbow grease.

BRAKE CLEAN. DO it quick. Then you gotta clean the area real good and polish it up. Works great!!! Doesn't eat the paint if you do it with some quickness and then clean it up right away. I've done my car and seen other cars done too.
