You need a 3M Stripe Off Wheel. Any auto parts store should have it. It's rubber and fits on the end of a drill and will not hurt the finish.

Use Goo Gone, it's made to remove adhesive and will not harm your paint. DO NOT use GOOF-OFF - that will remove paint!

I'm suprised no one said anything.... Don't take off your burger!!!!!

Unless you have a plan on covering the holes behind it.

Good luck.

3M adhesive remover works great. Doesn't harm the cars paint either.
