Question 1

How to replace the front side door emblem/nameplate on Chevrolet Colorado?

Accepted Answer

Before working on the side door emblem/nameplate you need to apply tape at the correct areas to shield the panel from scratches while preparing for installation. Heat the surface 152 mm (6 inches) away from a J 25070 heat gun while rotating the gun in circles for 30 seconds. Use a plastic tool to gently lift off the emblem/nameplate to stop harming the paint surface. Wipe the door panel surface and the brand plate with a scotch brite 3M(TM) molding adhesive remover disk 3M(TM) P/N 07501 before applying VMP naphtha to clean the door surface. Maintain tape positioning at 166 mm (6.54 in) from the door bottom and 117.4 mm (4.62 in) from the front edge to place the emblem/nameplate. Heat the door surface to 21°C (70°F) minimum with the J 25070 gun until the area is warm enough to avoid touching the backing of the emblem. Press the emblem/nameplate onto the door panel from its front end without backing in place. Grip the exposed side to fix the emblem properly. Then hand roll the installation area to achieve secure attachment. Evaluate the bond of the emblem/nameplate before you remove its protective tape from the surrounding door area.

Question 2

How to ensure proper installation of an emblem on a Chevrolet S10?

Accepted Answer

You need to protect the mounting surface with tape before you install an Emblem/nameplate on the pickup box while using tape for alignment reference points. Use a j 25070 (Heat Gun) to apply circular heat over the Emblem/nameplate for 30 seconds before lifting or removing it with a j 41409 (Body Molding Removal Tool) from the panel surface. Keep the tape on the molding and panel unless it becomes damaged in which case the Emblem/nameplate replacement can proceed. Use adhesive cleaner with a lint-free cloth to clean both the tape and mating surface before proceeding. Continue with the replacement if you observe any damage on the tape. Place the adhesive foam tape onto the back of the new Emblem/nameplate before pressing it onto the surface. To remove adhesive residue on body panels apply 3m(TM) scotch brite molding adhesive remover disk (3M(TM) p/n 07501). However for plastic panels use varnish makers and painters (VMP) naphtha or a 50/50 isopropyl alcohol and water solution with a lint-free cloth. The installation area must be cleared of dust and dirt before cleaning it with a lint-free cloth and the same cleaning solution until it dries completely. Organize placement marks 135 mm facing forward from the Tail Light and 330 mm away from the quarter panel ditch unless already present. Heat the mounting area to a temperature range between 27-41°c (80-105°F) while keeping the Emblem/nameplate at 29-32°c (85-90°F). Apply firm pressure across the entire mounting surface after positioning the Emblem or nameplate so it lines up with the measured marks. After completion you should peel off protective tape from the mounting surface.

Question 3

How to replace the emblem/nameplate on the pickup cab on Chevrolet Tahoe?

Accepted Answer

Apply tape to protect the pickup cab area before you heat the existing emblem. Then use the plastic tool to remove it. Place the heat gun J25070 at a distance of 152 mm or 6.0 inches from the emblem/nameplate surface to warm it for 30 seconds while moving in circular motions. Use a specific plastic tool to carefully remove the emblem/nameplate from the pickup cab panel surface. Then clean the front and back of the emblem/nameplate using a 3M scotch brite molding adhesive remover disk according to the instructions on the package or an equivalent method. Apply varnish making and painting naptha to clean the pickup cab panel area. Place tape to the specified dimensions if the emblem/nameplate location has no defined spot. Heat the pickup cabin surface using the gun to reach 21°C (70°F) but never touch the emblem adhesive pads during this process. Set the emblem/nameplate on the pickup panel with the front side while taking off its backing material. Press the emblem/nameplate throughout its surface to help bonding happen and check for good adherence before removing tape from the area around it.
