How do you remove emblems?

The topic speaks for itself.. I'd like to know how to remove the "Camry" and "LE" emblems in the back of the car, but dont know how without destroying the paint... Any advice?

I prefer the "Ice Pick" method. but I guess.

Knocker Loose will kill the adhesive quick. Slide it right off.

I've heard use a blowdryer and then heat the glue up. When the glue is soft, take some floss and gently keep going in (yeh its a shitty description...)

Then i guess use goo gone to get rid of excess glue.

I wouldn't go and make that claim. There are a million solutions that will break down the adhesive. Parts cleaner for one.
