Debadging My Way
Check it out I used the Goo Gone Citrus like some other people do, but I blasted the word " I N F I N I T I" off with my power washer!!! The words came off like nothing!!! The "G35" Badge is a little bit tighter but was very loosened so I pulled off with my hand so easily; the "Mt. Fuji" which is stiffer came off w goo gone and a flathead(becareful) I put some goo gone on the left over residue... let it sit and buffed/blasted it away with power washer......

Your'e right; howerver there are different modes on the power washer ofcourse that way was the direct stream, basically a straight beam of water like a laser, I dont use that to wash my car...I regularly wash my car with the power washer, I set it to fan out( like a v) it's less pressure but enough to get the dirt off the bottom of the car, I use only straight beam high pressure on the wheels occasionaly

The easiest way I found was to use some dental floss. Just slide the floss between the emblem and the car in a side to side motion and the the emblems come off with ease. After that I used some rubbing alcohol to remove the excess "sticky" tape. Then detailed the area with some polish. Look great, and easy to do.
