This is not for the faint of heart......
That mini sledge is one of the best tools I have ever purchased. It has helped me numerous times for years, believe me when I tell you.




I think I have some of both, but since retirement a few weeks ago, its tough to schedule finishing the job........lol
I am concerned about getting anything on the paint, but I imagine I will be ok, hope to get done by the weekend, that's if my "busy" retirement schedule allows........lol
Those are both paint safe I used em to replace my pops CE emblems back in the day before he bought the CTS-V. GC

Job is completed, new emblem is on, happy with the results. Used the hair dryer, 3M Adhesive Remover, took awhile but worth the time and effort.
Thanks for the tips, appreciated...........
