Draft on logo on angled surface

I have an angled surface that I want to have a logo
placed on.

Apparently the idea is to cast the part, powder coat it,
and then grind off the powder coat on the logo to have
the metal color shine thru.

However, I'm having trouble placing a draft on the logo.

I've put the logo on the surface of the 45deg angled
part. then I created a datum that is offset from the base
(normal to the pull direction) and extruded the logo .060
up. this created the logo, however, when I try to draft
the sides, proe fights me.

I've tried using blends, but the logo looks funky. I then
tried rounds, chamfers, but I can' t get anything that
looks satisfactory. I don't understand why I can't just
do a normal draft on it.

anyone got any advice?
 
post a pic so we can see exactly what you see. That could help us decide what you need to do.
