what car

punto mk2/2 just put warm water on and slide a credit card or summat similar underneath and it should come off

fiat punto mk1 i think it has holes underneath

there is also a guide somewhere on here go to the guides section at the top and search

if there is no holles, hoko up a hair dryer to a extension cable, then warm it up for a few seconds, then get a credit card and just take it off SLOWLY or you can **** up the paint

mk1 does leave holes! if u take the badges off you will be left with 4 holes which would be around £150 to sort out in a bodyshop. Mk2 puntos is just glued on so therefore to remove is easy.

needed :-

dental floss
hair dryer
small amount of petrol and a very soft cloth.#

so to start with switch the hair dryer on and gently warm all over the badges. Rip a small amount of the dental floss off and then use the dental floss to seperate the badges and glue from the paintwork, (as the floss is soft it wont damage the paint.) and residue left can be removed with the hairdryer and floss method again, gently peeling off with fingers or as a last resort dip a cloth in a bit of petrol and rub off. Ensure the paintwork does not get too hot though, If needed a polish such as auto glym SRP can be used to restore shine where your badges were.
thanks alex

Would rather come accross as sarcastic than someone who cannot use a simple search function on a subject that has been covered thousands of times and to be honest isn't really that difficult to work out yourself.....
