Heat gun!

Clean it up with WD-40 or Carb cleaner.

Wash and wax.

Re: Dealers Logo's

My Murano was the metal thing and my Armada was the sticker. I just peeled them both off, cleaned really good, then waxed. The color difference showed for about a month or so then it wasn't noticeable anymore.

Re: Dealers Logo's

You heard it here...These guys covered it... Start the corner of the sticker with a razor blade and heat it up and pull it off....Clean the rest with an adhesive remover or Kerosene...WAX...DONE!

Re: Dealers Logo's

Peel the sticker/decal off with fingernail or plastic razor blade, then laquer thinner on a paper towel will take the residue right off.

Glad it worked.....Sometimes you gotta think outside the box.

Instead of thinking of it as a vehicle...you have to look at the materials seperate. Then apply the correct product.

This just comes with thousands of cars as experience....... Newbies would never figure this shizzle out....High solids polymers....

I'm glad to share. PM me if you need anything.

Re: Dealers Logo's

Do what I do (at least when I buy new)~~ tell the dealer to take it off before you take delivery. I tell them to keep those stupid plastic license plate frames too.

Unless of course they want to offer me some financial incentive~ I'm not leaving that stupid stuff on my truck!!
