De-cal Removal

[envious2014]

Hey everyone Matt here from Arizona mobile detail . I have had a lot of people ask me about how to mix up the look of their vehicles without breaking the bank. De-badging now is really popular. I posted on my website blog page a step by step process!! please check it out. Also was wondering if anyone has some insight in getting the glue residue off faster. As sometimes it can take a while. Im always about being efficient in my detailing process. Give me some feedback and let me know what you think. Thanks again!!! :xyxthumbs:

I've been using a 3M eraser wheel for years now....works awesome, but you do need to be careful with it - lots of heat build up.

Since you're going to be doing
a lot of debadging, I'll suggest:

Ah yes that 3M product I hear is pretty good. I think I have seen Larry from AMMO NYC use that solvent in one of this videos. Thanks for the input

Another vouch for that 3M General Purpose Adhesive Remover. When my main job was working in a body shop that's what we used for removing all the old decal residue and any other adhesive material. It does run and evaporate very fast so on vertical panels that you can't soak I would leave a use a shop towel soaked in the liquid on top of the area to get it to soak in better.

Eraser wheel is nice, but as noted be careful of their used as they can heat up fast. Also if you don't use them the right direction they can rip off paint.
