bartkat Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 Get auto trim adhesive at most any auto parts store. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smooth1 Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 Seeing as how your car was repainted, maybe just have a place repaint it again with out the emblems on. Maybe kill both issues. If you just put that emblem back on, and the paint is peeling now, the paint would have probably peeled up in awhile anyway. Then you can just keep the emblems off and the car will be repainted the right way in that area. Just a thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djspawn00 Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 use a heat gun to remove whatever residue is there... clean the area again... you can use isophryl alcohol, apply new emblem... and your done... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bartkat Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 Once you have all the old adhesive and the goo gone cleaned off and the surface is dry, then you should put the emblems back on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
