    When in use by a man, the correct term is "heat gun". You man card is still valid, but be careful. haha:D:D:D

    ..did mine - took'em off with a heat gun and wrecked one TACOMA badge... my toyota emblem turned out awesome.. but the others.. crap! did 3 coats of adhesion promoter and then 3 coats of black - problem is that the paint on the words got "veiny" .. dunno what happened, looks like -crap- though :mad:

    ..getting new badges and going to take'em to a paint shop to have it done professionally... my taco's worth the few extra bux :D

    They got veiny because the adhesion promoter and paint you used where incompatible.

    i used the thicker padded stuff and would recommend using some that had some foam to absorb vibrations... autozone has several different thicknesses
