    I like to boil some water, hold it in for about 10 sec. and they should peel right off!

    Both of these methods sound like a lot of work. I use a zip strip...very EASY. HCH

    The hard part is getting the residual glue off after the wrap is gone. I used some brake cleaner and it came off pretty easy. Fingernail polish remover wasn't cutting it.
