Post How to remove double-sided tape under emblems?

I got up this morning and started shaving all the emblems and side moldings off of my car. I used a hair dryer to heat them with and a piece of fishing line to get up under them. So far I have only done the 2 small pieces on the front behind the wheels and the bird. The bird and one side molding came off great awith minimal residue. I used some bug and tar remover for that. But when I removed the passenger side molding - the real small piece- there was something like a black piece of tape there. Its flush so I can't get anyting under it. I tried to heat it for awhile and that didn't work as well as the bug and tar remover. Anyone else have any ideas about what to use to get it off

You can try WD-40 or if that does not work there is some stuff you can buy in the paint section at WalMart called Goof Off that will work.

Also theres some stuff called ''goo gone'' should be able to buy it pretty much anywhere. When I bought my 2002 WS6 (its from PA) it had the 2 inside the windshield emission stickers. This goo gone stuff worked GREAT!!!!
