Start working on the body emblem service with the Body Molding Removal Tool (J 41409) and its related tools at hand. Apply masking tape first to the body side border of the emblem then molding to protect them from damage during removal and reinstallation. Cut through adhesive material either with Body Molding Removal Tool (J 41409) or a 0.8 mm (0.03 in) fishing line. Install the part in a clean space since dust or dirt on the surface can affect how the product sticks. Use a solvent blend of 50% isopropyl alcohol and 50% water to wipe the space before placing the molding or emblem. Make sure the area is totally dry before continuing. Adjust heating when the body part measures between 27 and 41 degrees Celsius or 80 and 105 degrees Fahrenheit. Set the emblems to 85-90°F (29-32°C) temperature through direct contact with heat elements like hotplates or heating devices. Remove the protecting film from the back of the equipment and press the equipment onto the body area while using equal force across the entire surface.

First of all, apply masking tape to the body side border of the emblem or molding to prevent scratches of the surface and align the part while installing. You can use Body Molding Removal Tool (J 41409) or a fishing line that is 0.8mm (0.03in) thick to scrape the material through the adhesive material. Clean the surface for the positioning of the molding or emblem in a dust- free conditions using an appropriate solvent such as the solution consisting of 50 percent isopropyl alcohol and 50 percent water and dry the surface completely. Kept the body part in the temperature range of 27-41°C (80-105°F), heating them if necessary were the third conditions. The emblems's temperature should be between 29-32°C (85-90°F). Put them on a heated surface or into a warm lamp (heat lamp or heat gun will also work). Peel off the protective liner from the molding or emblem, while pressing it to the body surface with an equal pressure along the molding or emblem for a uniform bond.

First, to replace the emblem or molding, you apply masking tape to the body side border to avoid scratches and aligning the parts. Cut through the adhesive material with the Body Molding Removal Tool (J 41409) or a 0.8 mm (0.03 in) fishing line. In a dust-free environment, clean the mounting area with the help of a proper solvent, a combination of 50 percent isopropyl alcohol and 50 percent water, and dry it out. Make sure the body area is in between the temperature of 27 and 41 degrees Celsius (80 degrees to 105 degrees Fahrenheit), further heat it if necessary, the emblems should be in between the range of 29 and 32 degrees Celsius (85 to 90 degrees Fahrenheit), by placing them on to heat up or using a heat-lamp or heat gun. Uncover the protective liner located on the back of the molding or emblem and apply it on the body surface and be sure to apply equal pressure on the organization of molding or emblem to bond it well.

You should use the J 41409 or a 0.8 mm (0.03 in) fishing line to cut through the adhesive material. Before installing these parts maintain a clean installation environment to achieve proper bond strength. First use a compound of 50 percent isopropyl alcohol and 50 percent water to clean the installation area before completely drying it. Before installation verify that the body reaches a temperature between 27-41°C (80-105°F) while heating it if necessary. Also confirm that the emblem temperature lies between 29-32°C (85-90°F) through heated surfaces or heat lamps or guns. Pull off the protective liner from the back of the material and mount the molding or emblem onto the body surface while applying smooth pressure across the entire piece to create an even bond.
