debadging mark

so i just debadge the 3.2CL type S from my trunk and now there is a lil faint mark from where it was. in certain lights you can tell that the 3.2 was there. i was wondering if theres anything i can do about this. i have touch up paint. will that work? or would it look even worse. my car is an SMR btw. any suggestions would help!

Try some bug and tar remover and some Nufinish scratch remover, and then some cleaner wax. That should help 100%, if not, time fades it out pretty well. I would NOT use touch up paint.

will it really work? no i meant that it looks as if theres a lighter shade of red that you can see. i got all the adhesive stuff out, now its just that sillhouette of where the badges were. it looks like one of those fake n bake tans where the girls would place a lil plastic shape of a heart or whatever on the skin when they tan so wheen they came out, theres a shape of a heart, in my case my car got a tan. and it aint pretty.

Give it a shot cleaner wax and the scratch remover should do the trick. Don't use any cheap wax either. Had the same problem on my SSM and now it looks great.
