Badge removal

[ENASNI]

Are any of the badges bolted on? I want to remove both side badges and the gate badge. I'm guessing they're just on with double sided tape but thought I would ask first.

Don't know about the others, but my rear Alpha badge was double sided tape only. I used fishing line to saw through for removal (replaced it with a special edition "V8" emblem). I assume that they are all attached the same.

Good deal. Thanks!

yeah, don't use a scraper like I did. I scraped off a chunk of paint. :'(

I've completely shaved 3 H3s and all of the badges are held on with very strong double sided tape.

Use a heat gun and nylon prying tools. If you take your time and do it right, they will come right off, no problem. The badges will be ruined, though.

Took a little over 3 hours but I got them all off. Started off with fishing line to separate the badge from the truck. Then I used the heat gun to get the bulk of the glue residue off. Then turtle wax decal remover. Then finished it off with simple green and windex. You can't even tell anything was there. My finger tips are pretty sore though hehe

My badges came off perfect. I stuck them on my tool box incase I ever wanted to use them again. I don't see that happening though.

I am convinced that mine will leave mark. It will be the only part of the truck not pinstriped!

Why are you trying to hide? Wear your badge with honor. You can't hide what you are, you're a friggen Hummer owner.:horns:

After fishing line, I used Desolv-It; best adhesive remover I've ever found. My Alpha badge is now over my workbench.

Just figured out your license plate/forum name! Nice! :thumbs:

I've had that plate ever since high school. Back then it was on a 76 Trans Am.

I get quite a few people asking me what it is at gas stations. (With the badges removed.)

They are tape. Use floss to peel them off then use alcohol and a pale cloth to remove residue
