I saturated mine with Goo Gone about 15 min. before I started and used a 
plastic putty knife to scrape the stubborn stuff. If you're real careful a 
sharp clean razor window scraper works great but you really gotta have a 
gentle touch. On my 85 I didn't really care about a few gouges since I was 
repainting anyway. The device you were asking about is a rotor disk that's 
like a pencil erasor, you put it on a drill motor and it heats up and rolls 
off the sticky stuff. Don't look for one at any parts stores though. You'd 
need to go to a body shop supply dealer. 3M makes one. If you are not 
planning to repaint I would HIGHLY recommend using the wheel device. I used 
one on my white 88 and it worked wonderfully, especially on the stains from 
dirt that had been behind the strip for 10 years. Good luck...
