De-badging help please!!

[bakertom91]

Well, didn't go to plan really.

Renault Sport badge off, Autoglym tar remover used, and polished a few times ... still got this left, any ideas?



Cheers

 

[Wrighty.]

Try some polish on it see if that helps.

Clay and machine polish might be a good start. Not sure you will be able to hand polish that out. Will need some heat putting into it and a good cut and finish polish like Mags 105 and 205.

cheers, will give it a quick clay to start see what happens

 

[bakertom91]

Clayed, no real improvement, went over again with polish, bit more effort put in and it has improved slightly but nothing major!

 

[JAMason]

What polish are you using and what pads if any?!

 

[bakertom91]

Just polishing by hand at the moment using Autoglym Super Resin and microfibres

That's not going to do anything. That's a finishing polish and won't be cutting the marks out just making them look shiny! You need a cutting polish and a finishing polish. You will also need a harsher pad... I think Sonus do a hand polishing kit on Clean your Car. Its a cutting & finishing polish with a cutting and finishing pad. You will have better results with that.

What about good old T-cut?

 

[bakertom91]

Brilliant thanks a lot, that's just saved me a few hours!

Ordered up, will let you know the results.

Thanks once again

t-cut is the devil! That polish does the same job but is safer and will give a better finish.

Bit of elbow grease should do it!

Some Meguires Scratch X will have this sorted easily!

I have the same problem with mine at the moment, have been told it needs to be heated and it is an easy fix. (Not got round to trying it yet!)

Glad it helped. Love the new badge as well. I would get one my self but at that price for a plastic stick on badge?! Even Dick Turpin wore a mask. Bloody daylight robbery!
