I used some kinda spray from the parts store it softened the tape behind the molding and peeled right off then just cleaned the rest of by hand, forget what it was though didn't seem to affect the paint at all.

Blow dryer and my thumb to get the glue/tape off. I really wish I would have picked up the eraser wheel. Would have saved me time and blisters.

3m eraser is way too much $$$. I got the AStro pneumatic one for $14 at a paint shop, works well.
