Default How to take off Wald Spoiler that is double sided taped on

How can i take off the Wald Spoiler that is double sided taped on to the trunk? I have tried taking it out but it was very difficult. The double side is on there pretty good. Any good ideas to get it off without scratching the paint? thx

Goo gone and fishing wire or dental floss.

I'm sure there's plenty of methods...personally i've done this with no issues:

On a hot day when the exterior of your car is hot, spray some Googone around the edges and then use fishing line or something similar to "saw" underneath from one side to the other. It will slowly come off. Just don't get lazy and start pulling it off by hand when your half way through, keep sawing at it all the way across. You'll probably have some tape left over on the car/spoiler, let the sun heat it up, or heat it up using a blow dryer, spray on some goo-gone and remove it. Should be good to go!
