Default A Quickie Mod...



Before I tucked my Pcar for the Winter, I decided to do a quickie mod by changing my silver "S" emblem to a RED one. It's a tad smaller than the original, but it looks just fine by me!

It was easy to get the badge off. I used a WAXED dental floss and worked it under the emblem, making sure that I worked the floss back and forth, changing the floss often. Once the old emblem was removed, I used goof off goo remover. Takes a lot of patience to remove the old adhesive off. I used a microfiber rag which I soaked with goof off solution to rub the old adhesive off.

Finally, I used some Griot's Garage Speed Shine solution to wipe the old goof off solution off. Then, I used a #3 polish on an orbital polisher to polish the area before I placed the new emblem on. Before doing so, I lightly wiped the area with a microfiber cloth soaked with rubbing alcohol.

Cheers,

Vinny

Now you need to update your avatar, though.

Thanks! I get a lot of smiles and on occasion, the frowns from church-goers. LOL.

If I ever see Ron Jeremy here in NudeHampster, I'll tell him that you said hello! Just kidding.
