If it's the same old Contact cement used for applying laminates, you can soften
it using PPG's Acryli-Clean. It will take a while to work the solvent
under the badges, but patience will pay off.
ANd Next time use the correct method of attaching the badges. Use double stick
trim tape that is available at most body shop supply stores.
