Strips like that are easy to take off, same as normal VR/VS strips as they're not large enough to be held on by too much sikaflex.

Just use a jug of boiling water or a heat gun to soften up the sikaflex then use a stanley knife to cut the edges away until you can grab the strip, then she should just pull off fairly easy.

The leftover just use a caramel wheel.
