thats how you do it, you'll have some nice blisters to show for all that hard work too.

Yup use your poor thumbs and roll that crap off. Enjoy your shiny new blisters too !

I feel your pain. I took the side mouldings off my mom's Sedan a couple years ago. Man did that suck. Think of it this way though... it will make washing and waxing the car a lot easier .

It looks great. I'm glad you decided to take them off .

I sprayed WD-40 on it, left it for an hour, and the glue practically wiped off! Much easier.

I didn't even plan it that way... I forgot about it, and went back to it after about an hour... see? Laziness DOES pay off!

^ ^ ^ Was going to suggest the WD-40 myself. Stuff cleans greasy hands like a mofo too. Good idea to give a good wash and wax too as the WD-40 will strip the wax.
