Don't heat it too hot but it warms up good, it will peel right off. A little wd 40 on a rag will clean the leftover glue off.

Such ease and convenience costs a lot

It sucks and isn’t fast, but will work well with clean results. Goo gone can be used in place of wd40. Heat and pick the edges with a fingernail...bit by bit...

Decals came off, Piece by piece, painstaking slow. WD-40 removes the glue, but it too was a slow process. Results look great. Fwiw

Just have some on a rag and keep applying it as you peel the sticker up. Then finish off with same.
