Few dabs of http://www.toolbank.com/3365/p/C11041/EVBCYN20 should do the trick!!

Did mine yesterday looks mint I must say

[poopyfish]

Did mine the other day, looks 10 times better,

I've left the DS3 on the back for now, but for all the rest it just took a boiling kettle and a thin butter knife they came off easy with no sticky mess left behind, i did wipe over with some nail polish remover, robbed off the wife, just to make sure no sticky residues left.. Great! ta for the help.

Sorry for the bump but apart for some tbagging the threads useful :P

What do you use to get behind the lettering of the back citroen? an old bank card or something? I plan to do this during the week but im browning my pants at the idea of scratching it :|

On my old car, I heated the glue behind the badge with a hair dryer - just don't go too close / warm. This just softens it, then use the edge of a bank card and rub off gently. With it being soft after a quick heat most peels off anyway.

Aye doesnt sound too complex. I think with just the DS3 badges and the Cit chevrons on the grill, it will look awesome and confuse everyone.

Dental floss, strong cotton, fingernails - to be honest with hot water the letters come off easily. I was worried until I tried it.

No heat required on the citroen or the 3 you can just swipe a card under them all with no effort.

And a bit of t cut to remove the glue

The front requires a bit more effort.

Either or, you can't really do too much damage providing you're not holding a hairdryer against the paint for a good few minutes.

The process should only take a couple of seconds.

Just do it in direct sunlight, that way you don't need either. I would also recommend not using a Credit card as this may scratch the paint without you even realising.
I used dental floss, you can get it from any supermarket, I paid 79p for around 70metres worth.

I did both the Citroen on the back, the DS3 and the front logo.

And I agree with Rickzayne, the front is a bit more harder to get off, just needs a bit more effort!


I then used Tar and Bug remover to get off any leftover residue left from the adhesive.

Good luck

thank you richards and gunther

Hey, i did mine after being in the sun, used Dental Floss to start it off the carefully prised it off and then SRP to polish off any sticky residue. Came off easy. Just the Citroen logo off mine, left the DS3. I missed the bling of the chrome, so i ordered some Chrome rear light inserts and chrome rear window bead, which i have literally just received tonight !!! Job for the weekend.
