About the dental floss trick.....
(How dare you use dental floss for such a frivilous deed????)
But, if you do, be sure to buy a thicker dental "tape" so it will withstand the tension created. Regular floss might cut better, but won't last very long.
And, use it in your mouth first...that will create a lot more lubrication!

Plus you get twice the use out of one roll of floss.

Hi guys, I finally got into removing the door spears today. I used a couple of plastic putty knives to get things started. Once I got them started I was able to just twist them off. The tape residue was a little tougher. Started with GooGone, then a little brake cleaner. THen comet cleaner to get rid of the stains. Next I'll polish and wax. Looks great. Thanks for the help guys
