Depends how long its been on.

Of its been on a fair few years and its all abit "dry", grab a loose edge and start pulling, it comes off really easy.

What it leaves you with it the glue, which is also dry, which rubs off by hand but if your painting the roof you might as well just sand it off while your paint prepping.
