    Another way to do it in the winter is put in the garage and use a blow dryer on the hottest setting to warm it. Heat it until you can touch the molding and feel that it's getting hot. Go slow and heat a little at a time as you go and you should be fine.

      Yeah I took mine off with a heat gun and a fiber stick.
      But, I'm reapinting my car, but I still had NO problems at all.

        I'd imagine that would help a great deal.

                    I've also heard of people pulling the clear off...just depends on the car. I'm cheap to, and didnt want to have it recleared or painted

                        If you're not going to keep the molding for any reason afterwards, a heat gun is perfect and should help avoid damaging the paint when pulling it off.

                            a heat gun did not damage my stock moldings. The sun after 22 years did though.

                            Anyone want them LOL!! Just needs to be scuffed and painted. And new 3m double sided tape put back on.
