If you soak it in goo gone or any other adhesive remover and gently scrape, it's no different than wetting a windshield and removing stickers with a razor knife.

Well just from my experience lol. I got uncaring and ended up w/ a few deep scratches.

OH! Do NOT let the Goo Gone sit in the sun for long..I accidently left some on when I was at work..came out to this fist sized discolored blotch on my trunk.
