Haze after debadge?

I took off the G35 logo last night. It took me much longer than I suspected but now I notice that there is a "haze" and at some angles I can see where the G35 logo was. What should I do? Are there any products to make it less obvious. My car is black so its more obvious then on other cars.

thanks

Make sure you've got all of the adhesive off (GooGone, etc.)...there's shouldn't be a change in "texture" as you run your hand over it. Second, let it see some sun. The paint is a little darker where it's been exposed to UV rays for a while... it goes away after a couple weeks at most, so no worries.
Just make sure you get all that adhesive off.

Did you wax it? I just removed the emblems from my 98 Maxima did cleaner wax, then regular wax and you can't tell they where ever there. My Max is dark green.

You could use kerosene, very quickly, if you don't have an adhesive remover. Goo gone is a better choice though. After that, use either a glaze meant for dark colors or the FINEST grit clearcoat safe polish you can find. I like 3M glaze and polish, but others like Maguires are a good choice. Lastly, wax it!

Try some WD40... it works on everything else and is great for killing adhesives.
