to remove the emblem from all you need is some fishing line and a warm day/blow dryer.

Heat to soften the adhesive and the fishing line to cut through it.

pretty simple.

but if your using plastidip you dont really need to remove the emblem, just mask off around it.
and the over spray just peels off. Theres already a thread on it some where... JUST SEARCH

NO! Don't remove it. Just tape off a square around it, spray down two coats (only spray directlly at it, not from the sides etc.), let it dry then peel off the excess. It's super easy.

Removing the emblem also removed the whole point of using plasti-dip instead of paint buddy.
