    advice on center cap logo removal

    So yeah... kinda like the title says... Looking for some sound advice on removing the bmw logo from these center caps so I can blast and coat. The caps are soild, and metal. It looks like there is an edge and maybe the BMW logo is glued in? Maybe cleared over it as well?

    I thought about maybe heating the back of it up slowly with some map gas? New to the whole wheel refinishing....

    Sorry for the large ass photos

    Looks like a glued on emblem. Just pry it up with a small flathead. Or drill a small hole on the back side and push it up from behind.

      Thanks, I was hoping it was that easy. I ended up just cutting around the seam on the roughest looking one and it went farily easy. The backing of it stayed(looked like hardened epoxy goop) the logo itself was very a thin flexible piece. I thought that was kinda odd.
