Unhappy Stupid Dealer Emblems

Bought my car from camelback VW subaru in Phoenix AZ, they stuck one of those metal dealer emblems on Bobby underneath his VW Emblem on the back on the hatch...

I know it's pretty easy to get stickers and that gummy stuff off of windows.. but how the heck do I get this thing off without ruining the paint??? UGH!

Use Dental Floss.

And gently saw it away.

Then use Goo-Gone or something similar to remove the sticky

Could try using a hair dryer to loosen the sticky, but becareful of overheating and damaging the paint

Dental Floss.. Brilliant! I don't know why I didn't think of that... Grrr... haha

Well thanks a bunch. Goo gone isn't harmful to paint at all???
