    I just pulled my badge off. I parked the truck in the sun for about 5 minutes and then started to peel it with a squeegee similar to the one in the video. Once I got it off there was a bunch of glue left behind - like in the video. I used the heat of the sun and folded it back into itself just using my fingers. It all ended up in a ball and that was it - perfect! No scratched paint. Thanks for the video!!!

    I've watched hundreds of car videos and your the first I've ever seen to cover plates and not in post. That's very smart and a huge time saver.

    Sanding it will bond the adhesive really well. But it will make it harder to remove later on when you want to do it again.

      It really isn't necessary.

    Your vid was simple and straight forward, my rear emblem was pretty much the same and came of pretty easily. Getting the excess glue off was easier to just heat and roll with my fingers, gentle heat let me roll it without burning my fingers.
    Used just 91% alcohol to clean up the residue and replaced it WITHOUT sanding
    Thanks for your hints

    All u need is heavy monofilament fishing line. Snake it behind the decal which is held on with 3m VHB tape. Then “saw” the line back and forth behind the decal. Then remove any remaining adhesive with wd40

    You can also use lighter fluid to clean the residue. Also, if you can touch the inside of the skin where the emblem is, even with a stick, it would be recommended to push against it so that the metal grabs on better. Unsure how this tailgate is vs say a hatch back door.

    Good job buddy. You going to have that truck looking new again if you keep replacing everything. LOL A tip I have done in the past on some emblems and other things attached with 2 sided tape is dental floss to remove them kind of use it like a saw between the mounting surface and the tape it does a pretty good job. Have a great week!!!

    Cool I never knew it had screws, mine is a small old ranger with a small logo on the right side I dont think it has screws. At least ford uses good glue my logo is pretty worn out it's a 1997 but I'm gona wait till it completely fades or cracks or falls off lol btw your supposed to push pressure on any logo for at least 1 min and do not let it get wet for 48 hours the same for stickers.

      Yeah, I thought the same thing. That old adhesive was stuck to the tailgate way better than to the emblem. So if sanding increases adhesion to the tailgate, your weak point is still on the emblem side. I pulled mu emblem off with no heat either. Just pulled right off.

      I used goo-gone, but still had to scrape a lot. Overall, the glue removal took about 10 minutes.
      The key to the removal of the emblem was most definitely the heat gun. I first tried without it, and then watched this video. The heat gun was like $25 and worked like magic!
