I used a hair dryer, TSP/water mix, then a 3M stripe off wheel, then cleaner wax, and it looks awesome now.

didn't use anything on mine. let it sit out in the sun on a 100 degree day, pulled the moulding right off, then just used my thumb and pressure to roll off the glue. good wash/wax looked like it never had mouldings.

I second that, it was a lot of work though and ended up with a few blisters.

Are you talking about the molding around the wheel wells? Ive been wanting to take it off but I dont know what it looks like or how its attached. Is it just glued on there? Do you have any pictures of a tahoe with the molding taken off? Thank you!
