Also a great way to get rid of the awful dealership badges that they force on customers.
ChefDomH. I was talking about those the other day. They send your car out with advertising and car damage by adding 3d emblems to them. If they paid me a yearly advertising fee I'd be cool w it. but they just fuck you into advertising.
I always thought they used license plates and VIN numbers...
yeah. The license and Vin number don't identify a car. hey repo man...go grab a grey Mustang that has our symbol. Pick one. It doesn't matter it has our logo it must be the one we're looking for......dumb
I'd tell them to remove the badge or i buy the car somewhere else - I can understand a sticker or plate border but a badge..make me shake my head whenever I see cars with them
Mark Pensmith Yes, the vin number does identify the car
This guy seems like the nicest guy ever haha
Chunky Rexx, Larry is an extremely nice guy, really humorous in person.
No badge = weight reduction ftw
+Heaven Sahota Yeah must do that,spare tire replaced by tire repair in a can,lol.
"get a small coffee to much weight slows down my car"-Car Guy Priorities
Take out all the gas, oil and tires for maximum weight reduction.
Walking using your feet, ultimate weight reduction
Drive in a plastic Little tikes car. Weight reduction max confirmed
Instructions were complicated. I'm now covered in blood and on the run from police.

+mason methot no it didn't
I'm gonna remove them off of my Impreza. But on a GTR I wouldn't take it off. That GTR emblem is more than just a badge. It's a symbol.
Carlos Diaz what impreza do u have
Aloha_gamer I'm guessing a bug eye
People like to steal Emblems. Not to mention they could be painting it.
Carlos Diaz except this car is garbage. the only real gtr is the r34
Aloha_gamer: He doesn't have one. he is subscribed only for girls like some wanking nerd. i bet he doesn't even have a car :D
There is this orange stuff called Goo Be-Gone. Don't even need that razor. Spray it on let it sit and wipe it off. And your paint is perfect. I've taken off emblems and decals from my cars and motorcycle.
+Bret Vines It works well...did it with my Altima SE-R
goo gone works well with the glue residue, not with the foamy part of the adhesive.
+Bret Vines found a whole bottle of that stuff in a parking lot lol. Score!
+Bret Vines i have a 2005 g35 and decided to de-badge the trunk , i used goo gone and there is still a golden residue from the glue , i dont know what else to do or use to remove it , thanks for any help or advice
Thanks
"..and I don't have any gloves on because I wanna feel the heat.."
Feels the heat.
I know this comment is old, but I literally laughed out loud and it’s midnight! 😂
Too funny !
@@Snow-chi Same here.
Why did i just watch this? I don't even have a car...

Blomblox same lol
Bomara same lmao
extremely helpful video! I used 10lb test fishing line + blow dryer + Goo Gone and the dryer worked VERY quickly - can't imagine taking the risk of a heat gun when the blow dryer was so fast (30-45 sec per badge). after the badges were off, the excess adhesive tape rolled right off by hand (2016 Toyota Highlander), so the Goo Gone was just for cleanup and took 60 secs (I could have skipped it!). then wiped clean and hand waxed. done! total time = heating badge, 1 min.; fishing line, 2 mins.; removing excess adhesive, 5 mins; Goo Gone and wiping clean, 5 mins. Difficulty level is like a 3/10. And this was my first time. Thank you!
This video was very helpful and in super good quality. Not to loud, not to low. Back ground noise not loud and his voice is at the right volume. Great video
Point to note with burns: don't use ice to treat. It creates secondary burns.
Use cool running water.
Additionally: don't take a GTR badge off!
That’s a Nissan badge
Best thing for that kind of burns? Tothpaste. Any brand.
This guy need practice the basics of safety: gloves and goggles when work.
@@Motoplugg he do take off the GTR badge as well. Looks dope without the badges
RICH POP BOOM BLACK
That should be a nissan color option.
John C - Nissan GT-R Rich Pop Boom Black Edition
Thanks for the tip, glad your back, I was starting to get lazy on some of my cleaning/detailing routine on my own vehicle, and need you to boot my ass and tell me to smarten up by putting out more videos!
LOL
You've been detailing your lawn mower it seems.
Come on bro don't make fun of his honda.
He'd say it's V-tec powered.
it's depend of what's the car you have, you have probably a car like corolla and its normal to not remove the badge for better look!
glowing hot 1000 degree logo vs guys finger!! MUST WATCH YOU WONT BELIEVE
Moaty Moaty (gone wrong) (police called)
Moaty Moaty (gone sexual)
oh yeah yeah oh yeah yeah (gone sicko mode)
Great video.i was going to remove my emblem with a shovel.
Who the hell is goin to remove the gtr logo??? Nissan logo ok, but the gtr logo. Its like u remove the skin from ur body bcus "its not looking good" wtf...
Thank you ^^^^ 😂😂😂
hey. vnj.b0ktcnbllllllllllpb by 36
because it looks cleaner lol
cbm12345432 no it looks absolutely shit without the gtr logo
Really? A Nissan GTR "looks absolutely shit" without the GTR badge? No.
Larry in my opinion you are undoubtedly the best detailer on UA-cam. You are making me seriously consider starting my own detailing company in the future but I really wish you would show more of the finished product. You clearly take a lot of pride in your work. Would have been awesome to see this car with both badges off and fully polished
would goo gone work as well?
yup. May take a little longer but should work.
AMMO NYC hi
AMMO NYC is that the 🇦🇱 flag
+RaphaK hehe
RaphaK cowsin these ease yioor cowsin letch gow bawlin!
Rather than doing this. Warm up a kettle of hot water. Pour it over the sign. It will come off then peel off the glue. Took me 5 mins for the Range Rover
I just used this method, eased the emblem off with a plastic trim popping tool. Very quick and satisfying. Thanks for the tip👍🏽
Thank you I'm do this tomorrow when I change mines
Boiling?
Thanks Larry, great info. Also a good idea to look inside the car to make sure the emblems do not have locator tabs or else you will have holes to deal with after removal.
Love your great videos....you seem so neat and tidy,do you fold your underpants in your drawers?
***** yes...u dont?
1) Floss badge off
2) Buff off foam and adhesive with WD40 on clean towel.
3) Rinse
Done.

I work at Finish Line Car Wash and Detail and we're professional but we don't do the cars you guys get but we do get Porsches and Mercedes and older cars and we use lacquer thinner to get anything sticky off and actually clean stains in carpet. You have to be careful with it though. Can't get it on anything plastic it will melt it and/or discolor it. But it works very well. And seems to be safe.
Great to see your back Larry.
I was thinking the same exact thing. He has been MIA
J. terry I'm BAAACK
I prefer his front
You have some great tutorial videos.
A couple of things. First and foremost before removing any badges make sure they are not mounted on. Many manufacturers mount them with two or more pins. If you remove it there will be holes in the bodywork. You can easily go to the dealer and ask them about that part and they can show you on a schematic how it is mounted.
There is an easier way to remove the glue. Instead of using a plastic razor (which can scratch the paint), take your finger (works best with rubber gloves) and roll the tape over itself. You start by just slowly rubbing a finger over a thin side of the glue and it will roll and ball up. It will make it much easier to remove the remaining glue as it sticks to itself.
I have removed badges for over 20 years and found this to be the easiest, safest and fastest method.
I learnt to use petrol, it wont make scratches and you can just whipe it of with a towel. It works the best for me
no need for some one to go to the dealer to ask about a part. Save gas and and potential scams by just using a search engine.
My car's emblem just got stolen -.-
I m weasel man i've had that happen too.
Haha wtf did they go to your car and heat gun it off?
What car do you have?
+Garrett Bradley I've had it happen to my bmw 530i..but it didn't come off clean. glue was left on car
***** thats so weird. Emblems are so cheap
Your vids have been incredibly educational. I never would have picked up these skills as quickly or thoroughly by reading a book on detailing. Thanks Larry and thank you UA-cam. Just used this technique to remove the "Focus" emblem from my new RS. Maybe now people will stop saying "Oh cute Focus! I rented one of those before!"
Larry, I don't know how I ever missed your postings. However, you are the BEST and I will continue to support you. Thank you, for teaching me some things I always wanted to know. God Bless!
If I had that GT-R I would remove the Nissan logo, and put the GT-R logo where the Nissan logo should be.
Worked like a charm. I won't advertise for a car dealer unless they pay me so their "ad" is the first thing that comes off once I got my Jeep off the lot.
i would remove the nissan emblem but no the gtr like wtf
X
D
Simon Cowell It's a no for him.
I like how he doesn't bother commenting on the comments or defending his video , this guy knows his craft ;) . Keep up the good work Bro. /G\
i thought it be held with pins.. thats interesting it isnt
I think the most cars these days are held in by adhesives ~15-20 pound strength, so really it doesn't make much sense to use pins
well he just took it off with hot air and a string lol strength is meaningless lol
Clearly you missed the point of my statement.
i got your point.
Well, some are, some aren't.
I dont even know how I got here, but you are engaging. You are not a douche and provide great information. Thanks for teaching me something. I'll be taking off emblems now the next time I'm in a parking garage.
you don't take the GTR badge off a GTR... you get slapped for even thinking of having thoughts like that
If you need a logo to realize what car you're looking at, you have no right to be upset
Soldiers don't wear medals on their cammies, so that's not saying much
someone posted this technique in 2012. you posted this one in 2014. good timing : )
Go to minute 5:00 for a sick burn.
Pete150 nice joke, just for that I want to listen to the mixtape
Evil loooooooooool
John Chappell aaa
This worked like a champ!!! Had a heat gun and fishing line in the shop and BOOM...done deal.
Now how do I go from a NBA One year Wonders video to this? This recommending system is one hell of a thing.
Easiest and safest way I learned how to do it without the chance of overheating, and scratching the paint, use a steamer + the moisture helps it get it off easier, 90% of the time without using a plastic blade
Soaking the goo in wd40 would have saved you an awful lot of time.
I don't plan to remove the badge of my car ,but the guy was so nice and so good at explaining I just watched the whole video and gave it a thumbs up .
And you've got a new Subscriber
I like the way you explain things
Thank you very much for the video
thanks for the good video. I learned a lot from him.
it just surprises me that you don't use a temperature-controlled hot air gun.
I also bought a BOSCH GHG 23-66 with all the attachments.
I am very satisfied.
im sending this guide for all owners who own a non m bmw and put m signs on them
HAHA! Totally right on with this one!
"You want that RICH POP BOOM BLACK!" Lol awesome videos Larry.
I like to use 120 grit medium sand paper to remove the excess glue followed by wiping the area clean with paper towels dabbed in brake fluid. Works every time!
Knee fixed - hand burnt - remember these things happen in 3s - Welcome back
...and with all that said and done, I shall leave the badges on my car lol
hahaha same here
lmao
01bluebusa LOL!
I’ve found that a combination of solvent remover and steam is a really fast way to remove all the gunk safety 👍 I’m a detailer in the uk and love your videos with very hints and tips. Keep up the great work 👍
I've used WD40 to remove that little bit of glue off. Spray it on, wipes right off.
sfield86 How badly would that mess with the paint though?
Just did it a couple weeks ago w/ a friend's new car. It didn't mess with the paint at all, just took it slow and steady till all the glue was gone. Didn't need to polish it after either. (did this just before washing it, so I guess the soap made sure the oil was gone)
I was going to remove the badges on my car, but Honda loves to put a bad on the plastic grill, so now I need to buy a OEM spec grill without the emblem seat.
Excellent video. I followed this method to remove emblems from my vehicle and it worked perfectly. Can't tell it ever had emblems on it. Thanks for this
wd 40 sprayed on that old rubber junk takes about 2 mins if that and it all will be gone.. you don't need heat or a plastic blade...
then buff and polish the area....
I wish your business was in the UK.
Very good job 👍
Great video. It would be awesome if you did a follow up on removing badges from plastic/rubber areas. I have a Front emblem I plan on removing and trying to gauge how long heat should be applied when it is affixed to plastic rubber surface of car. I imagine it’s much less time than metal for applying heat.
This is the Linus clone
Linus tech tips lmao
Instead of removing the left over goo, after removing as much as you can, I used a medium grade clay bar with clay lube. This way the best method & the came off right away after 6 swipes of the clay, maybe you guys should try this next time you remove emblems. Just an FYI
I used to do this pretty often at work,I would use heat to remove the badge with the fish gut,then let the left over glue cool down, apply something cold to the area,glue breaks down more so with cold,its much easier to remove,id use soap and water with the plastic blade to cause less friction.
11:01 Finally he closes the trunk!
SO you polished it. But didn't think to do this first since you're heating stuff up putting chemicals and all that on it. Good job using your head.
even on an $80k+ car, you still get orange peel, unless i'm just seeing things (to the right of his head where the light is) and i never understood why people like to debadge. makes their car look so bland with so much empty space in an area.
Driving a nissan is pretty embarrassing.
Probably because it's a Nissan.
Seen a guy put a Kia badge on a new Ferrari. Totally destroys peoples sheep brains.
It creates a smoother, cleaner line.
Maybe he got it debadged so that if he ever got caught speeding and the cop didn't know what the car was by the looks he couldn't say a "black Nissan GTR is heading south on I-90" or whatever and he might have a better chance of getting away.
I used vodka to clean the gunk off the carmax lettering. Thanks for the videos, I've learned a lot.
Would it hurt to use the plastic razor while you use the solvent and the rag?
+merrick behnke It would hurt. It would put more scratches in the paint. You can to get it off faster but then you'll have to buff longer to remove the scratches inflicted by the plastic razor.
Okay good to know. Thanks man :)
very professional .... never knew a detailer would act in such a pro way... over here is "aus" its a different story
Not all of them do. This guy regularly details collector cars worth millions, so he is not your average detailer.
WD-40 works great for removing the adhesive...
not necessarily, depends, the wd will get your decals and emblems off but sure, if you want to polish it and buff it you can. See f there is a difference between the exposed paint and the one under the removed decal.
Sorry to sound like an idiot here but is that regular wd40 that you use on locks etc or wd40 degreaser? Or either? Thanks
Thanks was removing a badge without preheating, was taking forever!!! you saved me about 30-40mins!
RIP nissan emblem
WD-40 will remove the emblem adhesive with no scratches or staining. It works fantastic.
Hey a easier way to get the glue stuff off is magic eraser
kenny sinanan Ok cool. Good tip :)
I wouldn't use magic eraser because its abrasive.
kenny sinanan That's a horrible idea. Have you seen what a magic eraser does to paint?!!
try something called a toffee wheel
I would just stick to the video
Sometimes a piece of painters tape can be applied once most of the emblem is separated. Then you can continue to separate the rest without worrying about it falling. Then soak with Goo Gone and rub off with rubber glove covered finger with the aid of a heat gun. Then finish with a scratch remover compound and wax.
I'm removing the Honda logo on my Civic and see if I can afford a Bugatti logo 😈🍚
3m adhesive remover works really well for taking off the rest of the double sided tape. Makes sense considering most double sided tape you find on autos use 3m product.
Have you ever used Eucalyptus Oil to break down adhesives? Its oil from an Australian native tree , and its great, gentle and safe for removing almost anything sticky.
Why would u wanna remove them badging
some people want a clean look
Looks more customized just for the look you know . Kinda more unique in a sense
And also in certain cases you would have to take off the badges to put a aftermarket
1 million views congratulations man you deserve more!!!!
I would put the GTR logo where the Nissan one was
Everyone that knows cars we'll would know that was a cheap idea. And anyone that knows cars doesn't need a damn badge to remind them that car is a GTR.
I've NEVER had to use a heat gun (too risky!) to remove emblems. Slow and steady with fishing line/dental floss/even a small flat blade screwdriver/rag does the trick and won't leave all that adhesive residue.
I want to have this done to my Bentley. My husband bought me this car and I feel a bit uncomfortable. I volunteer at a homeless shelter and also at a drug abuse agency. The people I work with and the residents are always commenting on my car. I wouldn't mind having the emblems removed so it wouldn't be so flashy.
Just because you remove the emblems doesn't mean they won't try to steal your Bentley. Maybe since you're able to afford a Bentley you should buy a secondary car that isn't flashy.
Jordan Little Hahaha....I honestly dont think that @Blanca W has a Bentley LOL ;-)
Jordan Little Thanks Jordan. I'm thinking of doing that. Not worried that they will steal anything, just thinking to not have so much unwanted attention.
Blanca W People will know it's a Bentley so removing the emblems won't stop unwanted attention.
goreylfc1 okay. Thanks.
Avery Dennison makes a fantastic adhesive remover that "melts" glue.
You laugh like Eric from that 70's show
People should not do that to a gtr :,(
I used polishing compound on mine to remove the emblem glue/tape. Didn't take long.
I hope nobody from Liverpool sees this
speedy gonzales it's ok nobody lives in shitty liverpool
Try some plain (unwaxed) dental floss instead of fishingline. I think it makes a cleaner cut when slicing/removing foam-tape type fasteners.
I remember some kids in my elementary school were removing the front and back badges of cars with screwdrivers. The Honda's were apparently easier since they were the most common one they'd flaunt. Also because civics are just everywhere.
Why would you remove Emblems of the Car?
Gablox -Roblox Gameplays- to maybe put one on thats a different colour
Gablox -Roblox Gameplays- for the extra Swag xD
weight reduction bro
Sir Bo Secatero. your so stupid
Sir Bo Secatero Its like a gram....
pretty nice how you described the method of it, i hope i will not scratch my car..... thanks 4 uploading!
Look at the way the trunk moves, shitty materials car manufactures use these days smh
I noticed. I thought he had the trunk open :/.
Yeah, trunk was open.
So i was correct? The trunk was open? or he didn't close it correctly.
Very professional! If i had a high end car i certainly know where i'd be taking it!
I guess everybody has their opinions, but I don't get why anyone would do this.
A fairly priced lukewarm basket of chicken wings nice name
I'm gonna do it because I have to replace my grille... Is that a bad reason? :B
This worked a treat my car is looking stealth and a bonus was I didn't burn myself on the badge 😂
1min video over extended so much.
Thanks. Some idiot stole the emblem off my Acura so I found someone with replacement parts and needed to know how to take the emblem off.
dab dab dab dab dab
I hope you have a speedy and non eventful recovery :) love your videos keep em coming !
there is this spray called gone goo that gets rid of the sticky residue too
3M rubber wheel that attaches to a drill could rub the double sided tape in seconds without messing the paint if done correctly. Emblems is not my favorite thing to do at work but watching you with the heat gun and plastic razor gave me a good laugh cause i know that took a while and and facial expressions while doing omg... thanks.
Just revisiting, because “I remember when you burned yourself” Larry - also every little helps for getting those better 103% retention rates. 💪🏻😉😁👍🏻
