I shaved my Maxima & SE lettering off today but couldn't get rest of the sticky stuff off... What can I use to get it off without having to go through a hassel?

There is this stuff called goo gone. Also, you could try something like WD-40. Be sure to wash and wax the area when you have removed the sticky stuff though.

WD-40 works good. Just have to take your time and little elbow grease.

erm... hmmph...

when i was debadging my car, it was VERY simple, and i got no goopy goops. my freinds were like 'whhhat, you got no residue?'

it was so easy, i pryed them off with brute force (no really, it was weirdly easy). they were peeling off like stickers.

when i did it, my car was still wet from the evil sprinklers. the water loosened the goo ALOT. so try that.

when i was 'peeling' off my emblems, i tried not to dent the car, so in the end, i had the whole plastic peice w/ no goo on the back.

the goo, was still stuck on the car, in perfect shape. i dripped some water from the top, and just peeled it off again.

i guess i got the cheap goop?

Rubbing alcohol (Isobrobly (sp) ) on a rag will probably do it. You can drink real alcohol while doing it to enhance the experience.
