I've never taken mine off, so can't help much. If you don't get it figured out in the next few days I'll tear into it next time the weather permits...

Somtimes it takes two people, one on each side and tug it back and forth.

You can pry the channel open a little bit.

Dawn dish washing detergent and a stiff brush, add enough water to get the detergent worked into the channel and then try to slide it side to side . It should break lose a little at a time but it will come . The clean up is simple just a water hose .......
