Just posting this in case someone does the same thing as me. I went through freshly paved road, so there was a bunch of tar deposits on my front bumper. I used Gyeon's tar remover (it's great!), but then it did this to my emblem.

Gladly there's an easy fix if your emblem looks like this. Just get some light polish, apply on a microfiber towel and rub. I wouldn't use compound, because it might be too abrasive. After rubbing with the polish, just wipe off and add ceramic coat, or a good ceramic spray coat. After doing that, it'll look like this:

Hope this helps anyone whose emblem looks like the first pic

You might have let it sit too long or dry?

try using a plastic polish on a small spot to see if it clears it up.
