    Hey guys, I just removed my badges and I can't get the crappy old adhesive off of the back. Any suggestions?

    Bug Off, then actually try wiping off left over adhesive with your fingers, etc. It may take a bit but it'll come off. Once removed, wipe well.

    Wait, this is on the actual badge, not the truck. Can I still use Goo Gone?

    Build thread in sig...
    i scraped the crap off the back with a razor. then soaked a few layers of paper towels with goo gone. press the padge into teh paper towels and let it sit for a minute or two before wipeing it off...works like a charm. paper towels and goo gone works for any leftovers on the truck itsself.
