The dealership went out of business and their logo has a huge ugly white airplane on it.... I would've asked them not to put it on in the first place if I saw it prior to purchase.

I just had to do this myself. It is easy. Get out your hair dryer. Blast the daylights out of the logo, starting at a corner. The heat will lossen it up. Gently peel it back continuing to use the hair dryer.
Be patient. It will take a little time. But it will come off. When it is removed, use a soft sponge with a little soapy water to wash the logo area so you will not have the "shadow" still showing.
Good luck

If it is a metallic finish you may well have to live with it or try a local body shop quickly before the it gets a heat cycle on it. The new own require a special type of acetone that has to be handled carefully to remove these things. I put badging on the cars I sold but it had an adhesive strip, that could simply be pulled off and Windex the adhesive. Be careful and good luck

If it is a vinyl sticker I would use a heat gun or a hair dryer set on high to soften the adhesive and a plastic scraper to pull it off. If there is any adhesive left on the car use a product called Goo-Gone or lighter fluid to disolve the adhesive. if it is a plastic emblem held on with double sided adhesive tape try the same method but getting the tape off is much harder.

I carefully pull mine off when I get the car home. Most are just glued on and can be removed. You can also try something like WD-40 to help loosen the glue. Remove it slowly and carefully. Good luck

This always works for me. Take a hair dryer and heat up the emblem. This loosens the glue and makes it easier to peel off with your fingers. Older stickers will be a little harder to get off sometimes because they get brittle with age.

Put warm water on it and then peel it off carefully, it will not take the paint off as it is like a decal on a car, so peel carefully

If you can start peeling it with your finger-nail the best solvent to use would be naptha, or lighter fluid.
You might have to go to a tobbaco store to find it. Ask the clerk for Ronsonol, or Zippo fuel.

ifr the logo is stuck on (transfer), you can remove it by putting s spray on tar remover on it and leave for a few minutes and it should come off

Use a heat gun. Better yet - if you care about how your car looks, take it somewhere and have it done.
