You dont fade the rest.
Just get some plush towels, clean it with rubbing alcohol, get some polish and buff it. Just use some elbow grease, thats all i did, my debadge turned out great.

use something like goo gone to remove any residue from adhesive, after than clean the surface, then hit it with some meguiars ultimate compound, then polish, then wax. If you look at my trunk, it doesnt look like I ever had any emblems

use goo gone to remove residue. use clay bar on the entire trunk (rest of the car too while you're at it). use meguiars ultimate compound, finish with polish and wax.
