Is it possible to remove dealer emblems of the back of my volvo without taking off the paint? How would you go about doing it? Thanks

blow drier to soften the adhesive + dental floss to peel it away gently. wash and wax and you'll never be able to tell they were even there

i used rubbing alcohol, a plastic razorblade, and duport rubbing compound to remove the left over residue.

and yeah, doing it after the cars been sitting in the sun all day is best

It's all about 3M adhesive remover available at Kragen. The stuff is also great for removing tree sap off your car's paint.

Yep, 3M adhesive remover is great. I de-striped my 245 a couple of weeks ago, and that really gets the residue off. A quick trip over it with the Meguiar's, and you can't even tell it ever had pinstripes.

BTW, WD-40 works very well for removing adhesive residue as well.

ANYTHING with toulene in it ...Wal Mart has some crap called Goof-off (or something like that) - its in a pint sized white can. That dissolves adhesive on contact.
