mark as in Glue? i had extra glue residue and i used bug and tar removal from kragen. now it looks very clean.
just get a cloth towel or sumthing and keep rubbing till it comes off ( haha very funny)

i debagged mine and it had some glue, well its not glue like in super glue its from the back of the tape or whatever they use to stick the badge on. just scrub hard and it will come off. if not then you need to have someone else scrub for you.

I had some marks as well when I debadged mine (not glue though, more like fine scratches and a bit of discoloration). I used some light compound to smooth out the clear coat and blend with the surrounding area, then I waxed the area and now I can't tell where the badges were.

What you do is take a cotton shirt (when the badges are completly off, and theres just glue left) pour light amounts of Goo Gone on it, then heat it up, then just rub away with the towel, back and fourth as hard as you can in the area where the glue is. I got all mine gone within a few hours, and any noticable color fade went back to normal after I washed and waxed the areas. Now mine looks great

He might be talking about how he can still see the ouline of everything in the paint. Paint does get faded by the sun over time. I detail cars everyday and I removed the A4 and the 1.8T from my silver 00 and you could slightly see the outlines in the paint. All you need to do then is run a high speed buffer over the area, obviously only do this if all the glue is gone and if this is your problem.
