Easiest Way to Debadge?

I was thinking about debadging the blazer, what is the easiest way of doing this without scratching the paint? Ive herd dental floss or fishing line. I remember doing the "grand prix" badge on the trunk lid on my gp, but i ended up getting a tiny scratch in the process.

I did a quick photoshop of it debadged, do you think it looks good? or should i just leave it alone?

i used a putty knife and carefuly just took away the badge and then i went over it all with goo gone and then if you have small scraches you can use come compound and buff them out

I used dental floss and it worked like a charm.

fishing line and a blowdryer would be best. have someone constantly hold the blowdryer moving all around the badge and u just move the fishing line up and down. let the blowdryer and fishing line do the work and u wont end up with any scratches.
