    How's the best way to get rid of badges with out ripping paint?

    I thought I'd use some solvent and kite string.

    I used fishing line. Double it over and saw it right off. Remover is the best for getting it off. They make a eraser wheel to take it off. But be careful it really FUBAR.d my boys fender... if you decided to use one.

    I'm not so sure fishing line would work with stickers...you might just have to use solvent and elbow grease on those...
