Removing Emblem Goop?
 
Prior post from Jim mentioned using Prepsol to remove the adhesive left after removing the Boxster Emblem from the trunk. Used teh dental floss method to remove emblem but lots of adhesive goop remains. Tried using Bug and Tar remover but did not work well. Will try the Prepsol next. Anyone know of anything that has actually worked well? Thanks.

i used paint thinner. it sounds much worse than it really is...

just rinse it thoroughly and wax it after.

DON"T use paint thiner please!

WD40 works really well. Spray it on and let it sit quite a while. Works much better than goo gone.
