no, some of our lancers were unlucky ad when debadged it wont go away no matter what.

i debadged mine and removed all the goo and you could still see lancer perfectly across the back, i left it like that for about 5 months and still looked exactly the same so i sucked it up and put them back on.

if its something u can scratch off, try using ur fingernail. then give that section a wax and see if its still visible. i did the same thing to my RA, debadging for me required a lot of elbow grease becuz i used my finger nail to take off the adhesive once i took off the badge. there is still a faint outline now, but when i wax it, you cant even see it

I got rid of all the goo. It's etched in the clear coat.

block it out with some 1500 grit wetsand. Go easy on it and dry it off to check where your at. You should start to see the outline of the letters and how it looks lower than the rest of the clear. If you can get it down to the same level great but if not then do the best you can do. rub it out with some rubbing compound 3000 grit and then go over it a few times with a good cleaner wax.
