debadging dealer logo

I want to remove the dealer logo on the back of my car, (which is ridiculous because the dealer has their name on both plate frames too but whatever, so a total of 3 spots), Its glued on with some adhesive, what is the best way to go about doing this so i dont ruin the paint on the car?

I have always told the dealer to remove it. Unless they want to pay me to advertise for them.

I don't know what kind of placard you have so a little more info on the design would help.

I mean is it just a sticker? If it's just a sticker, take a a blow drier to it. Warm it up and peel it off. If it leaves glue behind then a little Turtlewax "Bug-n-Tar" remover will get any glue residue off.
Then just be sure to wax the area because it will remove the wax.

If it's a sticker do what Easy said, if it's one of those that's a raised badge sticker thing, heat it with a hair dryer and you can take a piece of dental floss to work behind it to slowly take it off if you can't just peel it. Then like easy said, just use something like the bug n tar remover to take off any excess glue.
