I use a heat gun, and this blade tool to remove the moldings. This tool will cut right through the 2 sided tape that holds the moldings on. It takes around 10 minutes or so to remove the moldings.

I use a Snap On Crud Thug with an eraser wheel to remove the left over 2 sided tape from the sides of the car, and from the back of the moldings. This tool is over $500, and the replacement eraser wheels are $50, but for this job it's worth every penny

This is what the back sides of the moldings look like after the wheel takes off the remaining 2 sided tape

This is an extremely delicate process, and it's extremely important to run the wheel parallel with the molding, and stay away from the very edge. This tool will absolutely DESTROY the moldings if you let it. If you get into the edge, it will burn into it and create a wobbly edge. That would be extremely noticeable when it's reinstalled. This process takes me around 45 min per side

I put a piece of paper under it so you can see the edge is not distorted at all.
