Man... it's on there good too. Metal scraper isn't touching it. Any ideas for fast removal? I don't want to run it to heat it up for fear of just smearing it around. Maybe I'll try the heat gun..

I tried heating it with my butane torch then scraping it. Wasn't getting anywhere then I thought what about my little window scraper.

That worked great! I don't know what kind of plastic that was but it was heavy duty ****. I've picked up grocery bags before and they come off easy. This stuff was solid. All better.
