Also, you might be interested in trying turtle wax's sticker/label remover (its the green aerosol can). Works fast, but don't use too much or let it sit too long. Immediately clean off and wax after you get the excess glue off. Hope this helps.

Got a chance today to use the wd40, scratch 2x, and clay bar. Didn't do much, realized its scratched through the paint because of the badge being on for 10 years.

If anyone can get the paint refinished for not a crazy price let me know please.

Gotta be patient with the wd40 and plastic card. I bend the car so the edges even though round didnt scratch my paint. I thought mine was scratched through to the paint but i kept going and about 2 hours later it looked perfectly fine.

It's definitely through the paint. The spots are lower than the paint after being rubbed through, not raised above the paint like residue.
