• Q: How to replace the front bumper fascia emblem on 2004 Chevrolet Cavalier?

  A: You should start by applying tape to protect your mounting surface before putting tape alignment marks in place when installing. Heat the emblem/nameplate with the J 25070 Heat Gun (J 25070) at a 152 mm (6 in) distance from the surface as you circle the heat around for 30 seconds. Apply a flat plastic tool to elevate or extract the emblem/nameplate off the panel's surface. Wash the panel surface and mating area with adhesive cleaner while using a clean lint-free cloth before checking the condition of the tape. Proceed with the replacement of the emblem/nameplate only if the tape becomes damaged. Place new emblem/nameplate onto adhesive foam tape before installing it on the designated area. For body panels apply 3M(TM) Scotch Brite molding adhesive remover disk (3M(TM) P/N 07501) but plastic panels require a lint-free cloth with Varnish Makers and Painters (VMP) naphtha or a 50/50 mix of isopropyl alcohol and water to remove old adhesive. After cleaning the installation area drain it thoroughly before replacing the emblem/nameplate. The J 25070 Heat Gun (J 25070) should be used to warm the mounting surface to 27-41°C (80-105°F) to heat the emblem/nameplate to 29-32°C (85-90°F) if required. Position the emblem/nameplate onto the mounting surface by lining it up with the alignment marks then use even distribution of pressure to bond it properly. Detach protective tape from the mounting surface.
