The lore around buffing matte paint. Guy at the dealership took a swing at me when I asked to remove the badges cause he thought he would need buff afterward.

oh yeah, don't buff that paint.

a heat gun and non-marring scraper will work fine. you won't need to buff it. If there is adhesive left use a thing called an "eraser wheel" and a low speed drill.

don't get me wrong, this is my dream car. My problem with the badges is they look like trunk acne to me--a distraction from the otherwise pristine surface. In a perfect world I'd take the V8 BiTurbo badges off the sides as well but I might leave those on for now.

Would a hair dryer work in place of a heat gun?
