This should work with PPF adhesive, but it should be a lot easier to remove than the adhesive used for badges! When we remove the glue from PPF we spray a large area and let it soak in to help loosen it up, then we use the plastic razor and just lightly scrape the surface. It may take a couple passes, but most of the time it only takes one time over with the scraper!

The 3m adhesive remover in this video is an industry standard. 3m adhesive cleaner and rapid remover are two of the most used adhesive removers in the industry!

At around $20 a can, I wouldn't consider the 3m brand cheap, as far as an adhesive remover, it is still to this day the best adhesive remover we have found, and anyone can buy it at the parts store!

@@killercustomwraps8651 it’s not the best. I’ve used it. Eulex is way better. Dampen a small area on your towel and blot and it dissolves right in front of you. And doesn’t dry. Why do you not want it to dry fast? Because then you don’t need to waste more product and keep reusing the same rag. Again, just bc it can be found anywhere, doesn’t mean it’s the best. 3d adhesive remover is better than 3m. Just like how chemical guys are found in every Walmart but no detailer actually uses them.

@@InfiniteDetailing101 We strongly disagree. Also, 3m adhesive cleaner as well as rapid remover are the wrap industry standards for adhesive removers that don't hurt paint! It seems as though you were looking for a way to remove your badges, but are now critiquing us, even though our method works 99 out of 100 times! As the title says, this video is how to EASILY remove adhesive from a vehicle without hurting the paint. The average person wants to be able to run down to the parts store and purchase a product that will be effective at solving the problem they have. The red and white can of 3m adhesive cleaner is in my opinion as well as all of our employees, the best stuff we have used to date! We have attempted to use around 20 different adhesive removers over the past several years, and 3m is always our go to! When this video was made 3 years ago, we had tried maybe 6-8 different adhesive removers, and it was our favorite. Fast forward over 3 years now, and out of 20, it is still our favorite! Thank you for watching! If you need anymore help getting the badges off because your product was insufficient, please leave another reply with the issue your having!

@@killercustomwraps8651 Eulex literally is designed to be efficient. Now I know for a fact that no actual professional uses just 3m. I’ve heard the opposite. Bc again, you don’t want the fast drying stuff. And the aerosol forms. Inefficient.

@@killercustomwraps8651 on top of that. Tell me. On a sprinter van that’s covered all over in adhesive from a goof that removed wraps incorrectly, how many of those cans are you going to go through? Be honest. Exactly. Eulex bottle you’ll only use 1/4 of it. Again. Commercial grade and professional grade will always outdo consumer.

Sorry for the late reply, I assume you have already figured out an answer, but if not, most Oreillys keep it in stock!

the eraser wheel does not get rid of all adhesives. It also does not get rid of the discoloring that is left behind after the adhesive is removed. The main reason we don't recommend an eraser wheel is because it is very easy to get too aggressive and burn the clear coat!

@killercustomwraps8651 it does the same thing you just did. Remove the adhesive, just faster. I see someone milking labor rates on their customers lol

@@chamakese55 I see inexperience talking! Thank you for your input. We do hundreds of cars a year, and we still use this same process today! It is a way that anyone removing badges can do without hurting their OEM paint. Im happy for you removing badges for the first time. Turns out you had to look up a video to figure it out, not us!

@killercustomwraps8651 lol sure. I've just told everyone on your comment section a faster and easier way is all. No inexperience here..been doing my own work for over 10 years. Everyone watches everything on fb. I already know how to golf, doesn't mean I still don't watch golf videos lol

​@@killercustomwraps8651 yeah you're correct. I just used a rubber wheel and accidently damaged alot of my clear coat 😢 didnt realize it until afterwards..

I know its a late reply to your response, but sometimes, depending on the adhesive, it can take a little more "work"!

He said 30 minutes for 5 sprays and scrapes. But he mention the 3M remover spray is $22 plus tax.

This process only takes 30 minutes tops! The only thing we have changed since this video was made was we also clay bar at the end!

Do u have a better alternative?

Thanks I appreciate it

​@@camerongardner8947 3m rubber wheel

This process works really well on a dark colored vehicle. Typically dark colored vehicles have less discoloration issues than white. White paint shows the oxidation and dirt in the clear coat more so than any other color!

We don't keep up with it very well! We do have one though!

@@killercustomwraps8651 oh, what's ur business instagram ?

I'm not sure if the 3m adhesive cleaner is rated to remove superglue!

Heat gun and a scraper

@@bikersoncall that is why I said a heat gun and a scraper. The heat softens the adhesive. If that doesn't work try using some brake cleaner to soften the adhesive

​@@shark_bones I was just pointing out 'scraper', some non-paint savvy people will instantly think they can grab their floor tile scraper lol and go to town. I'd just bought a plastic automotive style set of scrappers for my broken window 'job', hadn't realized they had a specialized set. Another video said to use paint thinner, to remove this adhesive, I have no faith in that but have some and will give is a shot for shts n giggles. Have a great day, thanks for the reply..

@@bikersoncall I have seen some people use a razor blade. They run it flat across taking it down layer by layer. Ultimately, there are only two ways to remove them; mechanically or chemically

Eraser wheel. Took me about 20 minutes to take off 5 badges

From our experience, using adhesive remover works better than heat if the badge is already off! Heat can be extremely helpful when removing the badges though! We typically use the fishing line method to remove badges!

Thank you!

You should go over with a clay bar to try and pull the contaminants out.

You might have to use 2000 grit sand paper or compound.

I wouldn't advise bleach, but a clay bar can be used if the debris is down in the paint! It works really well for removing debris deposits from the paint! A full paint correction would be what I would recommend if I was not wrapping the truck!

It is in the video and description, but I used vvivid light smoke air tint.

@@Alexb4u1 thank you

I believe that the belief that a business can only provide 2 of the 3 is part of the problem with the majority of businesses right now. There is too much focus on one particular area in most cases. Luckily we have been able to provide our customers with a 4th aspect that you did not mention. We also provide top notch customer service! The issue with the industry, at least where we are located, is that at best you can only get 2 of the 4! That is why I started the business! I found it ridiculous that there was not a place in the area that could at least provide 3 of the 4. As of right now, we do all 4 very well in my opinion. We are still a small business so its easier for us to manage than a large company. I appreciate the input though! We are overdue for a new video! I have recorded a few different videos, but I haven't had time to edit and post them yet! Thanks for Watching!

Thank you!

Thanks for the tip on the heat gun! I was going to try that before reinstalling on the vehicle! Thank you guys for providing quality products!
