The redhat-logos, redhat-release, and redhat-release-notes (if it exists)
packages contain the trademarks that need to be changed at a minimum.  I
can't speak for CentOS but at Fuduntu we just replaced Fedora or RedHat
with Fuduntu in the spec, or any patches whenever we came across it in
addition to those three.
