Does anyone have any idea how this item comes off without damaging the paint?

It goes on with 3M tape, and I don't plan on ever taking it off. But I'm *assuming* that pulling hard enough will take it off, but rip up the tape. Goo Gone, or an equivalent, should take it off easily. I've taken emblems off cars this same way without damaging the paint, although this is a lot bigger than an emblem. I soak the emblems in Goo Gone every 20 minutes, for about 3 hours, then start to rip off the emblem. Its a pain in the ass, like most things that have to do with cars, but it works.

Use a piece of tape on the corner as a tab to pull it off. They come off very easily using this method.

I have had no problem with it removing paint. Sometimes when removing it a little will stick, but you just use the piece you removed to blot it and it comes right up.

it is etched/painted on there (seems permanent). doesn't bother me, but it would be a process to get it off

That's what I've experienced. The force required to remove the marks completely usually damages the paint

Its almost impossible to get it off. I used it in my son's bedroom (On his wall) several months ago and had to use a knife to scrape it off. Took some of the paint off. Panelling might be easier.

I just carefully pull it. Tug it side to side slowly and it will eventually come off.

I had the exact one shown above in a prrvious rental. It was fairly simple to remove. The only parts that took some work or fingernails to pull up were the tiny detail edges that were really skinny, and the little circles...but came off. Not much of a trace. From the right angle i could see where it had been.... But i was looking really hard. :) but in the end it caused no damage, missing paint etc. and i had no complaints from the landlord when i got my deposit back. Hope this helps! I loved the sticker and plan to buy more! Was sad to take it down!

Although I have never done it, it looks like it does come off. I just gave it a twist and it started to unscrew from the base.

I was able to remove it, to reposition it, while I was applying it to a wall papered surface. It does not appear to be super sticky, I would imagine it would come off, but it would be letter by letter, only the letters stick. I do not know if it could cause damage to paint.

I used a chalk marker and it didn't come off so I had to repaint it. But regular chalk comes off fine

Use a credit card or library card on the back and wedge it behind and then it comes off.. If you are on a paint wall it will likely take paint off because of strength of adhesive. Good luck!

I would try something like painters tape as this probably won't pull off the paint. If paint isn't a problem then any other type of masking tape should work

I would highly recommend not taking this apart at all. They are made pretty cheap. If you want to get rid of it, I hate it too, then just wrap everything in tape but the top surface and spray with flat black paint.

I am thinking you need to scrape it off the glass with a razor. Then soak and wash the window with an ammonia based liquid. Good Luck. It should all come off. You should wear a mask while scraping and vacuuming up the paint off the window.

The orange tip wasn't easy to remove but no impossible try hot water work for me don't force it the metal can be damage if you don't want to risk it just paint it to avoid any unnecessary damage
