Now no one knows you own a Chrysler. I think that's the real win in this one. Haha

@exceldentremoval 3 года назад

I’d recommend using only the fishing line. I’ve had to remove dents from several cars from customers using a plastic tool to pry the letters off. With the much thinner metal on modern cars, it’s become much easier to make small sharp dents when doing it this way.

@MadManInMyVisions 3 года назад

Fishing line is the way to go. I've removed a lot of emblems using this method.

@tazin8r 3 года назад

Plastic trim tools will scratch paintwork too, and if you need to do any leverage they can leave small dings as well. And all that pinstripe removal wheel did was spread the glue further. Would not recommend

@Coyote5555 3 года назад

plastic razor blades are the best for scraping it off, goo gone works great on the cleanup too

Ahhhh! I 2016 Nissan Altima had some trunk damage a few weeks ago, when someone backed into me in a parking lot. Took it to a certified collision shop, got a OEM trunk and all. When I got the call to pick up my car, i headed over signing some paperwork, and the first thing I noticed when they pulled my car up was the name plates "Altima SR" was misplaced on the trunk. Instead of being above each rear tail light, they placed it on the bottom of the trunk very close to the rear bumper. SMH! They had to order new name plates and still waiting to get in for that to be corrected. After watching this video, I was relieved at how simple this was without ruining paint. That was the first thing the head specialist was telling me that was more likey to happen and possibly replacing trunk again. BS! Didn't want to admit the error.

@C_HILL_OUT 3 года назад

Debadging a Chrysler isn’t enough. You then need to replace all the body panels, lights, electronics, interior, suspension, steering, engine and transmission. Once you’ve replaced all that with something like Toyota parts then you’ll have a nice reliable car.

@ellisrochlin2267 10 дней назад

oooo garry that heat gun for absolute beginner is a no no , they will ruin the paint (thats me) i will with patience go with the hair dryer and the fishing wire as i have about 15 2 " letters to remove . Its virtually a new car so i guess the glue is gonna be bit harder to loosen/ remove than a older vehicle. Will have to ask a customising firm for a recommended glue remover .

@DocMackGarage 3 года назад

I thought you would use dental floss for the cars number plate as it is the cars teeth 😁

@eazymoneyracing 19 дней назад

Heat gun and dental floss used as a "saw". Do it before bed so you are not wasting 😅

@merovingian688 Год назад

I just use the rubber wheel like a giant eraser instead of using the drill. Much safer on the paint than the drill.

@HFVidShotz 3 года назад

What about removing ghosting of the emblems from the paint. Sun fade of the paint around the emblems will make it look like you removed them.

@1AAuto 3 года назад

+HFVidShotz Thanks for the feedback!

@DashCamSerbia 3 года назад

What about those stickers that dealers put on a car? The stickers are the name of the dealer. Nobody wants to have that on their car, and provide a free advertisement for the dealer.

@AimeeGirl 3 года назад

If you left the car in the sun, would that work like using the heat tool?

@nastysoda9212 14 дней назад

the heat gun gets too hot, will absolutely destroy the paint, the plastic tool will also scratch the paint, twisting the letters will also scratch the paint, i'm not too sure i should be taking advice from this guy. The fishing line method doesn't touch the paint and is the best method.

@Farhan6247 3 года назад

What If someone does it to a leased car? Will the dealer have a problem?

@1AAuto 3 года назад

+Farhan Syed Thanks for watching! The dealer would likely charge you if you removed the badges on a leased vehicle. Removing dealer stickers shouldn't be a problem, as they can just apply a new one. You can always give them a call to see what their policies are regarding badges, stickers etc.
