Car Dealer's badge removal
#2
grab some unscented dental floss and saw it off.
Then use some gunk remover, or take an old rag soaked with brake cleaner and wipe it off. Have a clean unused rag ready to wipe the brakecleaner and excess adhesive off.

Did you buy this car from the dealer? I hate buying a car and having the dealer put their advertisement on the back of my car. That amounts to me providing free advertising for them by having their badge on my car.
When I buy a car, I tell the dealer that I won't accept delivery if they put their name on my car. I check when I go to pick up the car and won't sign the paperwork if the badge is on the car. Once I emphasize that I mean business, I've never had a dealer put a badge on my car! Easy.

I am very wary of putting brake fluid on paint. After the dental floss, I like to use naphtha oil from the hardware store to clean up gunk. Then use isopropyl alcohol from the drug store to clean up the naphtha. Do still test the naphtha first in an inconspicuous area. But it is way safer than brake fluid.

not brake fluid, brake cleaner. Do not spray directly on it, spray the cleaner onto a rag, then wipe rag over any adhesive left from the badge.
As long as you also have a clean rag to wipe up excess, no damage will occur

Reading fail on my part. Yeah, that would work well. Still, that naphtha is quite safe. It's used to prep porous wood surfaces before finishing, and I've never had it affect a clear coat.
