i have heard of people putting the card in a plastic bag or 2 then in the freezer for half an hour to freeze the thermal glue take it out and before any attempt at prying it off make sure you protect the card from what ever your prying with and dont force too much be gentle and kind of wiggle it off.good luck

yes this works good . youll be suprized how little force it will take. then use nail polish remover(acetone type) to get the remaining glue off
