I haven’t tried this, but this guy says to use a clothing steamer, which is a whole bunch easier than the razor-blade method. Here is his description of the procedure:

step 5Tips & discussion
Tips: DO NOT RUSH – it isn’t worth it. If you pull the whole sheet off you will have to steam the glue separately and it makes a mess, is annoying, and makes hair grow on your palms.
