• Q: How to Replace or Repair an Emblem on 2000 Buick Regal?

  A: Start the LS or Regal emblem/nameplate repair by purchasing the required tools which are a Heat Gun (J 25070) and 3M Scotch Brite Molding Adhesive Remover Disk P/N 07501. Use tape to cover the base while you make installation points on the surface. Heat the emblem/nameplate with the Heat Gun (J 25070) for 30 seconds while rotating the tool. Use a plastic tool to take off the part without damaging the paint. You can continue with the replacement when the tape shows damage on the molding or panel. First remove tape residue using adhesive cleaner and clean cloth. Press the foam adhesive onto the back of the new emblem/nameplate and position it correctly on the surface. The restoration process requires 3M(TM) Scotch Brite adhesive remover disks (3M(TM) P/N 07501) andstance 3M(TM) Scotch Brite adhesive remover disks for body panels while a clean lint-free cloth with VMP naphtha or isopropyl alcohol mixed fifty-fifty serves as replacement for plastic panels. Prepare a clean space without dust then make sure the area stays dry. To set the mark when it is missing use tape to define 25 mm from the side of the rear compartment lid to the 's' edge and 88 mm down from the bottom of the lid to 'L'. Apply heat to the mounting surface between 27-41 degrees Celsius (80-105 degrees Fahrenheit) and verify the emblem/nameplate stays at 29-32 degrees Celsius (85-90 degrees Fahrenheit). Apply the emblem/nameplate to its marked position on the mounting surface using equal force while pressing it onto the heated surface. Take off the protective tape from the mount area last.
