Smile How to remove badges

Just want to say, that I removed my boot badges today, and can highly recommend turtlewax bug and tar remover for removing the leftover sticky Gunge that holds the badges to the boot -this stuff was utterly amazing and saved potential hours of endless scraping, and is harmless to paintwork, even leaving a coat of wax behind.

Easy to do - just gently heat up badges with hairdryer, lift off with a thin plastic spatula, spray on bug and tar remover, wipe off the gunge, and repeat bug n tar remover if necessary to leave a debadged exterior! Easy!

I'm sure this has been mentioned before but I was so pleased with the result of the bug n tar remover I had to let everyone know!
