alternate method for debadging?

is there any way to debadge other than heat up the emblem with a blowdryer and run some fishing line behind it? the leasing company i got my G from put on this fugly company sticker on it that i want to remove, but i live in an apartment building so i cannot run a blow dryer outside. and living in NYC, who knows when it will get hot enough outside for me to just use the heat from the sun... its april 28, and friggin 50 degrees.

I didn't use heat on mine... fishing line and Goo Gone did the trick.

Id debadged in 40 degree weather. Just takes more time than if it was 90.
Go slow, and wax after.

I never really liked the look of debaged cars, but cleaning around the "Infiniti" wording is getting to be a pain. I am starting to feel it may be worth it to remove it.

Sounds like the OP was just trying to remove the local advertising logo for a car dealer, not any Infiniti emblems/letters.

^ spot on.

i really like the mt fuji and INFINITI logos, but i dont want to have a big red "GRAND PRIX MOTORS" badge on the back. they get enough advertisement from my license plate frames
