step one, drive up to a tree.
step two, drive slowly against that tree.
step three, enjoy new look over cold beer.

park the 1st side you plan on doing facing the hot sun for several hours. Next, get some high capacity fishing line ( 20 lb test ) work it in behind the molding and w/ the help of a friend work the fishing line up and down and back and forth while the friend pulls the molding away slowly. You can soften up tough spots w/ some goo gone.

Fishing line + sun/hair dryer + goo gone works like magic.

This stuff works great, this is what we use in our shop to remove old decals from our retired trucks.
