Re: Need help with weatherstripping
Are you talking about the weatherstripping or the adhesive? For the weatherstripping, use a plastic chisel or spatula type thing to prevent scratching. I carefully used a screwdriver. The adhesive was a pain to remove but with some 3M adhesive remover, it will dissolve with lots of elbow grease. The 3M adhesive remover will also deteriorate the old weatherstripping and make it easier to remove.

Re: Need help with weatherstripping
you also may want to try wax/ silicone remover. i have been using that on all sorts of adhesives since i started prepeing my car and the remover with some scotch brite is a killer combo for removing gunk
