Replacing sheer stripe/cove stripe tape

Catalina Direct sells 50’ lengths of what they refer to as sheer stripe tape. Has anyone removed the older tape on their boat and replaced it with new tape? Reading the description it seems the tape is really tape, not a decal type product that is frequently used for boat names. I’m looking for suggestions on how to remove the old tape and apply the new.
Thanks for any feedback

Our experience replacing it was that it was a decal type stripe not tape. Applied with soapy water, removed with a heat gun (carefully). You will need 2 rolls of 50' to do both sides.

I've used Debond Marine Formula. Works fast, no heat, won't harm gel coat. Good luck.
