Are you sure double sided tape was used? We had a mirror attached to the wall with the black mirror adhesive, which is designed to fasten mirrors to walls. It is a black adhesive that comes in a caulking tube. In our coach we taped the mirror with duct tape, as suggested, and then broke it and removed the pieces with a putty knife. Not an easy process.
OR, possibly Velcro might have been used? (..as many of our interior items are attached) Just a thought. - mike_brezExplorerFishing line
- lj2654ExplorerI removed mine by using a putty knife and working it around the sides. Mine was glued on with mirror adhesive though. I put some tape over the mirror for safety and wore gloves.

- gboppExplorerYou may want to tape the mirror with duct tape. If the mirror breaks it will help control the broken glass.
Safety first. :) - happy-2Explorerheat gun,very slowly.

If you can get dental floss around the tape, it will cut through the tape. Takes some work and use gloves to hold the dental floss. After the mirror is off, roll as much of the remainder of the tape off as possible then use "Goo Gone" to remove the adhesive that is left.
