I used fingernails on mine. I e-mailed Reynolds on this topic once and they were fine with Goo-Gone, if necessary.

Mine pulled right off, didn't even leave any residue.
I was worried I'd make a mess, but it didn't even come close to that.
Piece of cake.

Blow dryers definitely expedite the process of removal and I've tried it both ways! Just be sure not to cook your carbon for too long!
