very carefully..you do not want to upset the body paint...so start with the weakest solvent first. I 'd even start with household rubbing alcohol..then paint thinner_ put it on heavy and let it soak in ( it won't mess up the baked-on paint)..sometimes wd-40 works well too...a soft plastic scraper may also help. If you use a razor blade you have to be real careful and hold the blade flat against the work so as not to scratch it. Then there is laquer thinner but now you are getting into stuff that can affect the paint. Be careful with stuff like "goo-gone" first try it where it won't show and see how it affects the paint.

Check with a body shop. They should have a solvent that removes molding glue without hurting the paint.
If you do not want to do this?
Try "Bug and Tar" remover.

Spray can at most local auto parts stores.
