After reading a few threads on how to get rid of the glue residue left over from debadging or removing stickers, I decided to write this simple thread.

REQUIRED
-------------
Oomph Glue Remover
2 Cloths
Bucket With Water


METHOD
----------
After prying off your badges, or removing a sticker, you will notice sticky residue left over which can be really tough to remove.

1. Get your bottle of Oomph Glue Remover, spray a couple of little squirts onto the sticky residue (make sure the nozzle is set to SPRAY).

2. Allow the spray to soak into the glue by waiting about 1 minute.

3. Get your cloth and wipe the residue away.

If any glue is left over, repeat the three steps again but let the substance soak into the glue a little longer.

4. Dunk a clean cloth into your bucket of water and thoroughly wipe your car where the Glue Remover had contact with.

DONE.
Enjoy your debadged car with 100% of the sticky residue removed.

----------

Oomph Glue Remover is absolutely fantastic, this product took away the glue that remained after I removed the FALCON GLi badge, white stripe stickers and the 4.0i OHC stickers from the black moulding.

Oomph Glue Remover is located in your kitchen cleaning product section at your local Safeway/Woolworths supermarket (I don't think it is found anywhere else but I could be wrong). It's in a smallish 250mL bottle and it is about $5 (between $4 and $7...not 100% sure)

-----------

Thanks to TwinturboBMX for recommending the product because it is absolutely fantastic!

id like to add something to this. When i debaged my ute, i had glue that had gone hard and was almost impossible to remove. i used a carmel wheel. its like a rubber wheel(carmel colour) and u just put it into a cordless drill and away u go. this worked a treat. then just used the glue remover to clean the area up. jus thought id add that incase someone was in the same situation as me.
thanks bazzo

NO NO NO NO NO!
ITS CALLED EUCALYPTUS OIL!
as long as you do not leave it on and you wash it off it works the best. Its better than oomph for sure. All you need is a small cloth and the oil and rub it off. Works a treat!!!!
Support Australia........ Buy EUCALYPTUS OIL

Actually its really quite s**t, we used it at work when we were renewing our pricing strips, and the glue was really hardcorly on the shelving on the friges, we tried hot water, then eucalyptus, and it did sweet f**k all. Then we used oomph and it came off VERY easily. Trust me we were aprehensive to use it as we thought, oh waste of time, but hell it worked.
