How is it removing Stiga´s attach glue from sponges like dignics or tenergy?
Is it possible to remove without damaging the sponge if done carefully?

I've been using a product like:
to also remove the glue from the rubbers. Sometimes it works well, sometimes I have to use my fingers instead. Sometimes I can't remove the glue at all.

Of course once the glue is removed you need to re-glue an already cut rubber to the blade which includes a critical alignment which takes some practice and is never 100% perfect. So at my level I prefer to buy affordable rubbers (the $10-20 variety from princett.com/Yinhe) then I can just use new rubbers. 

For the glue I've been using this one:
from TT11.
Yinhe 980XX, DHS Hurricane 3 Neo, Nittaku Wallest 1.0mm sponge.

Yes imho, Stiga glue is pretty easy to peal off.
What is the point of playing safe shots when you can miss with style
