Default Help taking off trim

New to this forum this is actually my first post so don't hate.
Recently got a '94 F150 4.9L I-6, I love it, and I'm working on getting the trim off along the bottom. I know it has been on there for about 20 years so it's gunna take some time. I'm using GooGone (which took off the Chevy logo on the back of my brothers brand new Chevy with out leaving any trace behind) but it doesn't seem to be doing the job for me. I got most of it but now I'm down to just this.

Which is coming off as I dig at it, but I just want to know if there is a faster way. Since I still have all of this.

Are you meaning the Actual Trim,or the Glue residue after you remove the Trim? If your talking about the actual Trim I wonder if you could use a Strong type of Fishing Line to get it off? I'm not sure if it will work,but I've used it when removing Dealer Emblems,and other Emblems.

My trim came right off with a heat gun. It was also hot out that day, which may have helped. The residue came off with WD-40 and a rag.

I wish my trim was held on that good. I could walk up to any piece on my truck and just yank it off with my bare hands!
