How the HELL do you get this GLUE off!?
I went ahead and debadged the "3.2 TL" off my car -well actaully, it was coming off- and there is still the glue stuck on the back of the trunk. I tried some Goo Gone but I didn't know how to scrub it off without scratching the car. What should I do???

keep going with the goo gone soaking it repeatedly then just use your finger nail to scrub off the rest of the glue. it will work, a ton of members and i have used goo gone and can vouch. put a towl under the trunk lid so it doesnt drip off all over the place.

goo gone, lighter fluid, or diesal fluid. all work. 3m makes a emblim and adhesive remover that also works great. but when your done was and wax that area.

I used Goof Off to take the Acura and 3.2 TL badges off of my car. After doing it I noticed that the outlines of everything were still showing. So I kept going at it, I felt the lines and they were actually engraved. So I think that they are below the clear coat. Any ideas?

Its double sided tape. I use a rubber wheel on a drill. The rubber wheel I bought from Snap-on/ Matco/ for about $6.00. use it on the end of a drill motor and it'll take about minute and half, and it's safe for all paints...IF USED CORRECTLY!.. Got one here if your ever in central FL. stop by!!!! Yea I know......Jeff

I did mine in the summer when it was 90 degrees out, it came right off with my finger rubbing on it. I think the hairdryer would definitely work well, that would definitely soften the tape.
