Bald Eagle Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 I've heard that warming glued-on badges with a hair dryer softens the glue enough for you to gently ease the badge off. Don't know if the Audi "four rings" are stuck on, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have heard of this one, which seems safer than the boiling water and fishing line...lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Audi Owners Club Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 I have used a bit of garden string on badger before believe it or not. Works a treat to get behind the badge and break the adhesive. I then used Autoglym Intensive Tar remover to get the rest of the stick stuff off. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R8-one_day... Posted January 14, 2014 Author Share Posted January 14, 2014 Thanks for that... That way sounds safer. May combine Bald Eagle and your suggestions, Cheers Guy`s... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bald Eagle Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 I have used a bit of garden string on badger before believe it or not. That's OK if the badger is tame enough, but last time I tried that, the badger nearly had my fingers off! :D 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisproctor Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 As an alternative to fishing line and hot water, i have used a hair dryer and dental floss (floss is soft and more likely to snap than score paintwork) this was on early 2000's VW's rather than newer cars but it worked for me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
