Just made a really stupid mistake when setting up my brand new IM 170. I added a Maxspect Gyre and now want to change is location, but I cannot get the outside magnet off of the glass because I removed the plastic over the adhesive! This adhesive is no joke!
Who knows how to get this thing off without scratching the glass!

Try fishing line or thick thread. Work it between the magnet adhesive and the glass with a back and forth sawing motion. May work.
That's a great idea!
