When i got my car it had been debadged only for a stupid C O R S A badge stuck in the middle of the boot above the handle i want to take this off as the A has come off abit. Ive been told to use a hairdryer to take it off then ploish it with some auto glym polish. Has anyone else done this or used owt else to take them off.

I just pulled the badge off with my hand then t-Cut the and polished the paint. These badges were old though, and had a considerably amount of mould behind them!

yer that will work. if they are aftermarket they should come off easy enough.

Use a credit card etc to get behind them to lever them off without scratching the paint

I used a bit of cotton to take the Ibiza ones (same style) off mine.
Just stick the cotton behind the top of the badge and gradually cut down through the glue. Then just washed and polished it

Heat it up with a hairdryer, not too hot though as you'll lift off the paint
Use something like a bank card to prize off the badges.
Use a bit off gunk or i used petrol to remove any glue. You may need to tcut any colour.
I done all 5 off my cars and 2 mates cars like that with no problems ever.

A pencil eraser is excellent for getting rid of the excess glue.
