i removed my emblems a while ago and to this day, there is still some of the yellow adhesive on my car. i pretty much tried everything (to the best of my knowledge) to take it off and the yellow crap still remains. anyone able to take all that glue off? thanks

I actually used a butter knife. It came out nicely.

have you tried using a razorblade. i used bug and tar remover and it took off most of the stuff, there was some left over so i CAREFULLY used a razorblade and it came right off. goodluck
