I have used WD40 and it doesnt do anything to the paint as long as you clean it off right away.

I will take a clean towel to put the WD40 on and rub the area thats in question. I then take a clean towel that is soapy to wash the area back off or if your washing the car just wash it as normal.

Use Greddex Burnout Guard before hand, and it keeps the rubber from sticking.

But if that is not used, I've always soaked the area down with a water & car wash mix, then wiped the rubber off with a towel.
Of course, a nicely polished (or waxed) surface beforehand helps that out alot too.
