I took the badges off the tailgate, assuming I wouldnt have this crap to deal with.

Anyone know of an easy way to remove the old glue and help get rid of the shadows?

WD40, OOPS or Goof Off will work. You can find OOPS and Goof Off at Wally World. You will still need to use elbow grease...that sticky crap is not easy. Remember to wax and buff when you gett all that crap off.

Spend the $10 and get an Eraser Wheel from your local auto parts store. They work magic for this sort of stuff.

I used a generic foaming bathroom cleaner on mine. Did a great job and didn't damage the paint or any plastics. Had no eraser wheel handy and it still only took ~45 minutes to debadge the whole truck.

Did not hurt my paint...just need to wax afterwards.

Old track tip...spray WD-40 on the car behind the rear wheels so when you do your burn out...the rubber won't stick to the paint for easy cleaning. So no...the WD-40 will not hurt the paint.

not that stuff, "Bug and Tar Remover" it comes in a spray bottle and doesnt mess with the clear coat. thats what i used and it took it right off and i didnt even buff afterwards, just washed it.

Well, eraser wheel did the job. Tried goo gone, wd40, and others. Took me 4 stores to find the wheel, but finally found it at carquest.......$40!!!!!
But it took me literally 5 minutes to finish, then clay bar-ed and waxed. Looks good!

Goo Gone works great
