GooGone is garbage......takes forever....it also may cause irritation...
and it did, it irritated me to throw it out.

then i got Turtle Wax Bug & Tar Remover, that worked sooo much better and i used some fishing line to slice the emblems off.

Agreed, Hair Dryer, 20# monafilament fishing line and turtle wax bug remover worked very well for me.Done in 20 minutes, I removed everything.

Using string or fishing line. Then follow up with Meguire's ScratchX. Or you can just be like my gf and just "rip that piece off." I wouldn't recommend that though.

If you are **** retentive or your car is BO, then buffing out the shadow residual takes longer than getting the badges off.

Looks like a wurth wheel. That's what I used when I was a detailer long ago. Now, I'd use Goo Gone. Not as good OR FAST, but it works.
