Cut it with a knife and to put it back stick some gaffer tape over the joints.

Yeah, that stuff. What if I want to completely remove it and place vibrodampening in its place?

Pull it off then scrape it off with a plastic scraper and then remove any of the sticky stuff with a solvent like white spirit.
