damien666 Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 When I bought my car there was a RS2000 badge on the back of it and one of my pet hates is cars badged as something they're not so the first thing I did was take it off. Wasn't a problem until I discovered that the clown who put it on had used superglue. I'm now left with a big ugly RS badge shaped lump of superglue on my boot lid. Is there any way to get it off or am I going to have to sand it down and repaint? I've tried boiling water and all kinds of solvents but it just won't shift. I don't want to go near the car with a heat gun because last time I tried that I ended up stripping my paintwork back to the tin. Can anyone help?

SteveB Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 Acetone is the only thing that I know of that softens superglue, but it also eats cellulose paint so is of no use to you. Chipping, scraping or sanding are the only ways to do this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
