.

Hair dryers make it easier by heating and softening the glue that holds them on.

heat gun or hairdryer around the gaps of the badge. get a piece of fishing line and work it into it, works a charm only took me about 30 mins to remove badges and buff my corsair.

The TRX 'badging' is like pinstriping stuff though? ... Not a plastic/metal piece which is stuck on like the other pintara/corsair models.

I reckon you could just scrape it off with an old plastic card from your wallet, maybe a bit of metho or something to help clean off any sticky stuff it leaves behind.

To remove badges from the car use an old business card and a a hairdryer, once the badges are off to remove the sticky residue us a product called PREPSOLE its a wax and grease remover that will fix the problem. just let it soak for a while.
