Door edge guard

My Roadster came with clear plastic door edge guards. I'd like to take it off. I hate to be paranoid, but will it lift the paint upon removal?

If it's the stick-on film, try warming it up with a hair dryer (or similar) to soften the glue.

What had me concerned was that the glue had started to separate from the guard and it looked to be a whitish color. Was worried th PW paint had lifted. Threw caution to the wind and gently peeled off the guard. Paint is in tact. A little Goo Gone and all the adhesive gunk lifted off. All good now. Thanks!
