Not sure what kind of residue will be left and if taking it off will ruin the clear coat/paint underneath. I won't do it if that's the case. Will just have to live with what I originally put on. Anyone have any experience with this?

Thanks ahead.
The technique you propose sounds OK just pull it off gently so you don't take any paint with it. Use kerosene to remove the residue followed by soapy water and polish.
