Hair dryer and a razor blade with very careful hands...

Drag that blade backwards on concrete to roll the edge. Scrape with rulled edge to car. Less likely to dig into the paint that way.

I took mine off, and it will look decent a month later, its just too time consuming to be any type of fun so get the eraser wheel, much better method

theres absolutely no need for a blade...hair dryer...yes...then use your finger nails to get the stip up...continue to use the hair dryer as you lightly pull the stripe off or you risk it snapping...may do it anyways...but dont use a blade...you'll scratch up your paint

I second the eraser wheel. Works fast and gets all the residue off. I used it afer removing the moulding strips on my Bronco. The 15 year old residue came off in short order.
