The razor blade works great for this as you can use the blade to carefully lift up the edge and remove.

Thanks TJ. I was using my exacto knife to do just what you are describing about the razor blade on the first wheel. I'll try that without using any water on the next wheel and see how it works. I just had a hard time on the first wheel getting the vinyl exactly where I wanted it. The wheel being slightly wet helped me better move it just where I wanted it.
