I removed the 'Limited', 'Ecoboost' and 'Flex' from the rear of my vehicle but there a little glue left over on the chrome rear hatch. Has anyone successfully removed this?

Its only happened on the 'Limited' lettering.

You can get it at any parts store.  10 to 15 dollars. One can lasts forever. You don't need much at all.   It will say on the can it's safe for most cured automotive paint finishes. Probably cheaper on line.

I've had great success using Goo Gone. In fact, I've used it on probably 8-10 of my personal vehicles and a couple family members' vehicles with no issues. It is readily available at Walmart and most parts stores. I have a 16oz bottle with a spritzer nozzle and I think I paid around $5 for it a few years ago. It is still 3/4 full, which is enough to remove the badges of another 100 vehicles.
