i didn't clay it b/c i used elbow power and paint cleaner. I wouldn't recommend using that microfiber though after as teh glue will stick to it.

Has anyone found the Nissan emblem for the front grill yet? Because I easily got the rear Nissan emblem for the trunk at my work. So if anyone can find out how to get the one on the front grill lemme know. Thanx

Did the debadging today. What a breeze. All the I's came off with no effort or heating. But just used my heat gun on each letter for a a second or two (very hot gun) and just pried with finger nail. Now the Big logo was a little chore, but not bad. I put Goo Gone to remove the adhesive, washed the area, and waxed. No evidence at all.

Overall, very nice clean look. Much better.

Rubbing Alcohol does very little, use wd-40 if you have some, works just like goo gone...
The alcohol will do a good job of cleaning up the adhesive remover when you're done.
