I have a 2003 Chevy Silverado in really good shape. When I bought the truck in 2011 it came with these door moldings, but they looked really discolored and I wasnt really a fan of them. Found some posts

online about the 3M Eraser Wheel, and it made the process of removing the adhesive easy. On to some photos.

I was able to take off any residual adhesive with Meg's APC.

First time I demolded I got the "3m" wheel and paid the fist up your ass price.
2nd time, I ordered a no name brand on ebay for $8.
Worked exactly the same lol
 
3m eraser wheel sucks ass. I bought the red one from oreillys for about $30. It did my truck and it was done.
Went to a local paint shop and bought theirs for $11, lasted for 5 friends trucks debadging and demolding a couple of them.
 
I used my buddy's. It's a white 3m, has done at least 10 trucks and is still only half worn. My first truck I debadged/demolded by hand with carb cleaner and good gone. Never again
 
I've bought 2 white (tan) eraser wheels so far. $44 a piece. Will buy more. Absolutely love them. Probably one of my top 5 favorite inventions.

I take the residue off with Turtle Wax Bug and Tar Remover. Works flawlessly.

I do the same exact thing, works like a charm :shake:
 
I was apparently holding mine at an odd angle last time and its warped pretty bad. Will have to get a new one next time. But everything is done on my truck so the next time I do it will be for someone who pays for the wheel.
 
Usually when mine starts to angle, I'll just take it off the base and flip it around. But I went to use it last time and the whole thing is like oval shaped. I think something was sitting on it in my toolbox.
 
the way i see it you want as much contacting the surface asd possible, more surface area means less likely to dig into the paint and more area getting te tape/glue off.

so being on a angle is a good thing, seeing as there is no way you can hold it flat without the drill rubbing the paint.
 
Whenever I'm cutting into glue, I'm only using the leading edge though. So instead of having to whole entire surface of the wheel on the paint, I have a few millimeters. I cut into the glue perpendicular.
