+1 for the clay bar. I tried many methods without success. After 30 minutes with the clay bar the glue is gone. Yay.

I tried the claybar (brand new stick), but it didn't do anything for me, it just melted on the windscreen and made a big mess. I just used goo gone with a microfiber towel, and then Pinnacle Paintwork cleansing lotion.

I started the peeling today...i got the 2 side pieces of tape off, paint is perfect so far. The middle piece of tape is only left. It seems very hard to get though....Any suggestions on the middle piece? the weather stripping is so tight on that area so its hard to get a good start on it. It kept tearing off in small pieces unlike the sides...

I just used my fingernail to get started. I started on both of the edges, and then straightened it out.
