Just use the lightest first. and get progressively harsher. No need to use a chisel if it comes off with soap and water. You could even try heating it and see if the glue will soften and rub off.

Dr. Lee: I've got three Kimbers, a S&W Gunsite Edition and, most recently purchased; a Colt stainless Lightweight Commander XSE.
