You basically put it in a drill and use the edge of the wheel to take all the glue off. A lot quicker than any other method I've heard of and usually buffs the paintwork a bit as you're going so once you're finished it looks like the strips were never there. Only warning is don't put too much pressure on or keep it in the same spot for too long as it could burn through the paint but as long as you take it easy and keep it moving, you'll be done a lot quicker and without sore fingers at the end
