So i decided to take off the "S2000" emblems on the sides. The left side went smooth, but the right side is a different story. It still faintly says "s2000".. I've tried goo gone and clay bar. Its smooth to the touch but, you can feel a little bump over where it is so, im assuming it can be removed. If you close your eyes and run your finger down the side of it you can distinctly feel something. What should i try next? Should i seek professional help? Anyone in the SCV of SFV wanna take a look?! Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

A bit of light polishing compound and a buffer. If you dont have a buffer you can do it by hand, just use a microfiber cloth with the polishing compound, and rub.. and rub... and rub. After you do that apply a nice coat of wax. That shit SUCKS to get off, I just did mine last weekend.

Light polishing compound and a buffer..I've never and don't know how to use these.. Did you have the same problem as I? What kind of polish compound do you recommend?

For just cheap parts store compound that you can get anywhere, I like the turtle wax stuff:



If you dont have alot of experience with a buffer, better off to just stick with the microfiber towels and do it by hand. You can easily burn the paint with a high speed buffer if you arent careful. Just be sure its a microfiber towel so that you dont scratch the paint. If youre uncomfortable doing this yourself and know of any decent body shop, Im sure you could just swing by and if they are nice enough come buff that out for you in like 5 min.

Honestly even that polishing compound isnt really meant to be used with a high-speed buffer, its too coarse... but I had a nice microfiber buffing pad and have been detailing cars for years, and I knew what I could do with it. As I said above, stick with just using your hand and the cloth, it will come out eventually, but be prepared to be there for a while and have some sore fingers.

How about a heat gun to soften up the goo? Then perhaps a little alcohol.

When I took mine off I used a LOT of Goo Gone. I did soften up the glue from time to time with a heat gun like SDSILVERM3 said.

I was thinking it probably it wasn't goo, because it wouldn't come off with the Goo Gone. I going to try to take it off later today. I'll post results.
