i am in the middle of removing mie - have got the strip off but the glue remains - where will you get a fudge/toffee/caramel wheel
and is that autoglym stuff really good at removing them - may be easier to go and get some of that!!

Just done my rear badges at the weekend - heat gun - tar remover from pound shop & the rotary.
Cant even tell it was ever there 
Jus ttake your time, keep it hot & rub it with a clean cloth - should come off.
Wouldnt suggest anything flammable with heat though
