Goof Off Pro Strength....be very very careful

Many years ago I debadged a 944S that also had thin vinyl pin stripes I wanted to remove. At the local NAPA I found an " eraser pad " that you chucked into an electric hand drill . The eraser pad was a light brown/tan color and was quite soft. You just pulled the trigger on the drill, slowly worked the eraser pad into what you were removing and it took the vinyl tape and badge adhesive right off with no damage to the paint. Followed up with polishing compound and everything was gone . As long as you don't dwell in one spot too long ( heat build up ) it was pretty much stupid proof .

If you cannot get a hold of an "eraser style" vinyl remover, it's almost easier to heat the vinyl with a heat gun (on low setting) and just peel it off...usually leaves no residue.
