I’ve done it just by using a razor to cut the thread over the guide feet, then peeling it off. Residue dealt with by the edge of an old credit card or plastic knife back. If I recall correctly, the wraps peeled away from the blank rather easily.

Welcome to the forum!

The hardest part will be where there are no wraps. The wraps actually help lift the finish off the rod. Just cut along the top of the guide foot as the others have mention and lift the thread off. If you can get a thread started, you can unwrap the rest of the wrapping.

When you get to where there is permagloss on the blank, but no thread (the edges), take your time and decide when enough is enough. Permagloss is going to stick really well and getting it all off may not be possible. It also has the potential to lift the finish. Luckily Permagloss is usually applied thinly so just leaving it there is often ok. Moving guides always has the problem of leaving the old guide location visible. Just don't go into this thinking you are going to completely hide that.
