Default side molding

has anyone taken off the badging and side molding on a 07-09 gmc sierra or silverado. also advice on removing them. heard you could use floss to get the double sided tape off.

I agree with Rage_89. I used an eraser wheel for my 99 OBS. It's well worth the money, and my truck came out great. I picked mine up from car quest.

Definitely get the 3M stripe off wheel. The new trucks look good de-badged/de-molded. Having trouble posting pix of my truck. E-mail me at btlfedpny@yahoo.com and I'll e-mail you the pix of mine if you want.

Take fishing line and drag it between the molding and the paint. It'll cut through the tape, then you can use the 3M wheel to buff it off.

I used a heat gun to get the molding off, then clay bar to get the last bits and pieces.
