The glue from the stickers is on the black paint. What is safe to use to remove it?

Oh, and what’s the best double sided tape to put the trail rated back on?

3M makes a adhesive disc remover that is round and rubbery that you put in a drill and spin off the adhesive without damaging the paint. 3M also sells double sided tape in different sized rolls that works great. I owned a body shop for many years and always used these 2 products for my emblem removal/attaching jobs. Cut pieces of the roll to overlap the emblem, leaving the protective tape attached. Then lay the emblem down on a piece of poster board/cardboard and trim excess with a razor blade or Exacto knife. Remove the protective tape and stick on to the vehicle. Measure using masking tape to give you a alignment guide, then after sticking the emblem back on, remove the masking tape. Viola!.

I used Goof off to remove any glue from the paint and then waxed the area before reapplying.

perfect!! Thank you.

if it didn’t hurt the paint, maybe I will try this

I've used Goo-Gone, followed by rubbing alcohol. Obviously once you're set.....nice wash, wax/paint sealer to protect in future.

Actually, this is exactly what I did. Goo-Gone, Goof off....I tend to get their names mixed up, I think they're the same product.

i second,third the goo gone. i removed all emblems. only downside so far was when someone asked me "is that a hummer" LOL

Like others have said, goo-gone works wonders. Just peel the stickers off and wipe down with goo-gone and then rinse.
