I used a rubber disc that fit into a drill. I think 3M makes it . Works really fast and it wont burn your paint.

I dont really care bout the paint its ****ed under the molding anyway good thing i started to take it off now or the bottom half of my bed would have been on the ground in a few years. there was water and dirt and the paint was all nasty and chipping off and there was some surface rust begining. im tryin to decide if im gonna line the rockers up to the bottom of the molding or the top. anyways its less to paint.

I heard Goo-B-Gone will remove the adhesive but I am not sure. I do know that you can by an adhesive remover in a spray can at any auto paint supply store.

wd40 usually works for me but you will have to clean it really well before paint

Rubber disk all the way!!! I used it before i repainted my truck to remove everything. I beleive it is actually a Pinstripe remover but it works for all the adhesive great.

another way since you got rust use a fine brissel wire brush that hooks up on a grinder that will remove everything paint,rust,bring it back to metal paint it put your rockers under that molding and put molding back on great way to hide mistakes to put molding back on if you want a cheap trick by some clear silicone for outside windows cost 2$ a tube and seels everithing good so no more dirt gets under there thats wat i used all aroundon my truck first i used that 3m black molding holder crap takes forever to dry and who wants to spend all day holding molding in place with silicone put it on molding let it dry for about 30 min then put it on it will stay were you put it not slide down like that 3m crap that costs 15$ for a small tube put molding back before u paint seel them all around with that silicone and paint over them see that silicone is paintable so its gona be sealed without showing a mess looks like a pro did it

FEarTheDeerE, before you take everything off, look at my truck (pics in gallery). I have the true 'stripper' from the factory.
