Let it bake in the sun for a couple of hours in a round can with a blanket around the rim and something heavy in the bottom. You can leave the Yoke, convergence coil and the purity rings on unless you need to do the purity and convergence anyway. Also a good time to clean all the cigarette juice off when everything is removed. Peel the tape off the edge and carefully scrape out some of the edge of the PVA. DONT use metal objects at all. Use a plastic knife or such. Once fully warm, use a heat gun starting where the delamination starts toward the inside. you will see the "fingers" starting to crawl toward the center. Once the center is done, you should be able to remove it pretty easily. You can use some small wedges like chopsticks or such but I never had any issue without them. Like DaveWM said, DO NOT try to clean it until it's cool. Don't be in any rush. You can reattach any way you like. I use thin weatherstrip foam(the black stuff) around the whole outer edge and seal it with clear packing tape along the same edge as the original tape. It's much easier than using a few pieces of double sided tape and gives more support and is much more forgiving to mistakes and easier to correct. Just my 2 centavos.
