Degnol said:Ditto, and also depends on whether they used yellow or black weatherstrip adhesive. Yellow much more difficult to remove. IIRC
Are you trying to preserve paint? I was not concerned about that and zipped it off with a tufted wire wheel and an angle grinder.

Pete said:X2 on the 3M weatherstrip adhesive remover. It helps to let it soak in and soften up the real old hard stuff and to scrape exess off. This is an excellent all-around cleaner, solvent. Also removes the gaudy decals the PO put on.....

Degnol said:So buy two cans instead of one. The stuff was really designed to remove "fresh" adhesive, but as Pete says, let it soak.
