I've watched the videos and am going to give it a try on the truck before taking the emblems off. I am still fairly skeptical as I have always debadged in order to paint emblems. We'll see.

Good luck to you O3X5. Hope you have better results this time.

Thanks. The one time I debadged it wasn't as easy as everyone made it to be. For me there's certain things that never go my way, removing an emblem is one lol. Here's my second attempt, not going to peel it off until tomorrow so it's fully dried.

I plasticoated my emblems on the vehicle. Should'n't need 4 coats but more generally peels cleaner. I used an Xacto knife to lift an edge at the emblem. Harder to get it right coming from the outside in. Did take lots of patience but I didn't find it difficult. To get a clean edge at the turns I just lightly pierced the coating to get it started in the new direction.

an extra coat doesn't hurt. yea I'll be using a razor to break seal so it doesn't lift it off the emblem itself & a toothpick for the 5.

not as clean as I hoped for but good enough for me, some minors scratches which I'm sure compound will take care of.

Just finished the 3.0 badges. I have one more piece to dip but that's going to be a secret for now because I think I might be the first one to do it.

It's going to look sick though I'll say that!

^dude, they dip entire cars nowadays. There is nothing on a car that has never been dipped before. :p:

Anyway, so let's see it when it's done. :D

I mean on the e53 x5's

Is it the chrome holder for the rear roundel? =)

absolutely not
