Had to get a sensor off a brick wall with zero damage... used a hair dryer.

This was at a house in Austin where the old adhesive was basically concrete. My scraper just bent. I remembered my wife's hair dryer in the truck, so I heated the sensor for about two minutes. The adhesive peeled right off like old gum, left the brick perfect. Anyone ever try something weird like that on a tough removal?

Heat guns work even faster for that kind of job.

Heat guns can be too much for some materials though. A hair dryer is safer for the plastic bits.
