I am not sure what is involved on removing the alum. trim for your 
application but I remove the alum. trim along the rain gutter of my 67 Dart 
GT w/an old-fashioned bott;le opener w/o any bends, nicks, bending or 
distortion whatsoever; just start at one end and lift gently while moving 
along the trim piece; flawless.

You must remove them very carefully starting on one end. Personally if at
all possible, I try not removing them when refinishing a car because it 
seems
they always end up with a different bend in them and never look the same 
again.
Been working in bodyshops 20+ years and watching other bodymen trying to
pull  them too. Always seems they are never the same once pulled. Most are 
now
hard to  find for replacements too. I'm not saying it can't be done, but you
must be very  careful when attempting to pull drip moldings as they can bend 
very
easily. I've  always started on the end that seems to come up and carefully
work it upwards  until it releases on the bottom side. My personal 
preference
is to leave them  alone and work around them. Most bodymen I have worked 
around
also agree as most  of us have found out the hard way at one time or 
another.
This is the only area  in regard to trim I try not to disturb unless I must.
