floss is rather weak, i say use fishing line, but if floss works go for it. goo gone shouldnt harm the paint.


when looking at the name of the thread, i was suddenly reminded of the movie "Bad Boys"

A hot day in the sun and some floss worked for me. Since the badge is not metal it came off rather easily.

Mother-Bitches...I loved that line!
