Removal does not hurt the paint at all. Removal stretches the clear plastic film, making it less than likely to reinstall them as good as they were before you pulled them off. They start flat, take the curves of the body during install, and get stretched during removal. It is "static cling" but it also has a very mild adhesive on the one side, kinda like post-it notes glue.
