Leave SR5 badges or remove?

Its still soaking 2 hrs later, , I am trying a hard rubber spatula and its a struggle

 

Weird.... use a MF cloth with the goo gone on it to rub it off?

 

Remove it.
SR5 is not really anything to brag about, like maybe the Limited or Platinum badges that you may want to keep to show that your truck is special.

 

My truck is very special and he is offended by this comment

 

SORRY!

 

Not all decal wheels are the same I hear, test it on the roof or some other inconspicuous area first to see it doesn't damage the paint. I didn't know that and went full speed on my cordless drill on all the emblems, no damage at all and I have a black truck that shows everything, lucky I guess or Wonder Wheel is a good brand.

 

what's MF

 

where do you get the lemon essence oil?

 

thanks for reply, I was thinking on other lines

 

A local natural shop (not sure where you are) or a consultant that sells it. You should be able to Google "essential oil sellers in my area" amd get something. I think Wal-Mart sells some too (not the greatest and i won't use it for things with my kids....i sell oil myself) i would use what Wal-Mart sells though one my truck to get sticky off

 

I used wd-40 and a Micro fiber towels to get the adhesive from my badges and offroad stickers off my truck....

 

Yeah... that adhesive is tenacious stuff... if I remember right, I used the heat gun on it a little and used the plastic putty knife thingy, and my fingers... then used the goo gone to get rid of the shadow it left... keep after it... you’ll get it all off...

 

De-Badge it...looks cleaner

 

now that makes sense, I don't know why I didn't think of that. I have WD in every corner of my garage just so I can find one when I need it

 

How is that going to effect the paint?

 

From what I understand, it’ll affect the wax but not the clearcoat. Just wash it off same as you would GooGone or bug remover.

 

Didn't effect my white paint at all...learned this trick 2 weeks after i bought my truck...some how i hit a full tube of red grease driving down the road and it was all up and down the passenger side of my truck i couldn't get that shit off with any thing...i it was three washes later and sick to my stomach when my buddy sprayed wd 40 on my whole truck and washed right off.

 

That really sucks! i would be so sceptical to use that on my paint, but ill try that and see where it goes. Thanks again!

 

You could ask on this thread www.tundras.com/threads/ask-the-detailer.18408/page-6#post-625069

 

Dont get me wrong when my friend sprayed that shit all over my white truck my first thought was im gonna kill you....then i was like shit it worked.

 

Yeah taking those badges off makes it look much cleaner.

 

Ugh! It changed the whole body color to white?! GROSS!!

 

Nope not gonna hi jack this guys thread.
Not gonna explian how white get like 20 more hp than mgm.
Not gonna tell you how clean super white is instead of a dark and deppressing mgm.
Im just gonna be the bigger person and let it go.
Soooo adult of me i know.

 

How big of you!

 

Thanks it took alot out of me.

 

These plastic scrapers from Family Dollar are the best $2 I ever spent. When I went to the other side of the truck I used these scrapers with no heat. It seemed more of the stickum was on the badge than the body

 

I had some leftover goo from the tail vinyls. I hosed it down with some wd40 and it came off pretty easy. I gave it a good spray and let it sit for a moment (wiping up the run off that went below the area I wanted given clean with my MF cloth). After it sat for a moment I stared working the area with my MF cloth. I did this 3 times or so on each side. Spent maybe 30 min on it total. Did both sides and wiped down with warm water with a little dawn in it and a fresh MF cloth.
