so far driving has done a good job of removing mine. my rubicon decals are peeling away at the leading edge of the hood. i don't know if it's a common problem or not but i kinda wanted to keep those. not bad enough to buy new ones, but i would've been happier if they weren't peeling

I gotta try that 3M adhesive remover. The Mountain decals took awhile even with the plastic scraper and heat gun. I tried WD-40, Goof Off, Goo Gone, Bug & Tar Remover, and finally rubbing alcohol for the sticky crap. The rubbing alcohol seems to be working but you really have to work at it. It's definitely some serious adhesive.
