Ahh i see now. well i got them off by using a thin flexi stanley knife to pull one side up, then when i could get a grip on it, just rip the ####er off. but next problem is the sealant left behind... good stuff...too good. i got it off using stanley blade again to shave off majority and MEK but carefull if you get MEK it causes cancer and can rip your paint off. maybe thinners is safer

If i use a hairdryer would it make it any easyer to rip it off? i heard it can help a little

DIY: Removing those pesky door moulds
Takes awhile to do, When I did mine, I was upto my last door ,when i realised the person who last owned my car had taken the door mould off and had put it back on without taking the old sikaflex off, so i was left with 2 layers of sikaflex

yes hair dryer might make it easier but if you can get ur hands on a heat gunthat the best solution. i just bought some S pack side skirrts off a wrecked spack and the skirts are bonded on with the same shit that bonds the moulds to the doors except theres alot more of it! We got them off by heating the skirt up and pulling back the lower edge of the skirt and getting someone else to get under the skirt with a flexi stanely blade while other dude is pulling up on the edge. Hope this gives you some ideas
