Hi peeps,
Just seen the pics of Neilly's S40 with out the badges. It looks great. Have any of you de-badged a S60 and if so do the badges come off with out any problems?

As stated in a previous post a tried and proven method is a kettle of hot water poured and used to soften the adhesive.
is the VOLVO badge at the top just stuck on as well. some times the bigger badges have pins to hold them in place. Not sure about Volvo though!
hi mate think there just stuck on all ov them just try pulling it alittle you should see black foam type stuff if stuck on if pins this wont be there i think thats right try boiling water or a hair dryer proberbley easyer
If I remove my D5 badge and finally get my chrome tailpipe fitted, no one will know I'm a tight-arsed diseasel driver... until I start it up!
hmmm

the S60 and the T5 badges are gone now, went with the kettle. Good plan, works well. Thanks Dudes.

dental floss and WD40 works a treat

obviously for getting the badges off, don't use that combo when brushing your teeth

I used a heat gun,but very carefully though because these are really hot and can easily bubble paint in a few secs.Once i got the badges off i used white spirit to get the glue off.Takes a while but is oily so want be to abrasive to the paint work.............If your patient will work out good
Also used the same method to take off my side trims on the doors

trust me, the dental floss and wd40 is much easier, slide the floss behind the badge, squirt the wd onto the sticky stuff, and peel off, 3 x badges on my dads 850 took 10 mins
