Alright finally got it all off... That eraser wheel is a tool from god!!! Haha that worked awesome!! Definately worth the money if your going to do it yourself... The door moldings were a litte harder.. Got a little heat to them got one end up about 3 inches down grabbed it and just pulled it off... EXECPT for when I didn't apply heat to the the one on the drivers and just pulled it off.. Some clear coat came off...... Anyone know how to fix missing clear coat..

But anyways as far as the rest of the residue was A LOT easier getting it off with the wheel as apposed to using goo gone.. I will get pics up tomorrow!!

If not all the clear coat came off, I would try buffing it out first.

The stripe eraser's the right tool so here's a little more info: Best place to get one is at your local paint & body supply store. Ask for 3M brand, they do a better job & last longer. The cheaper brands will take the tape off but they leave a lot of glue & mess to clean off. The 3M turns it all into powder that you can just wipe off. As already stated, try & keep the eraser square to the panel, it lasts longer. Also, while you're there pick up a jug of SCAT. It's a wax & adhesive remover that will not harm the paint. Strip the tape off with the eraser & wipe the residue off with the SCAT. You'll never know anything was there. Recommend using plastic tools, they won't gouge the paint. Never tried fishing line, sounds like that works well.
