Hi and welcome to the forum
Simply pull at the rub strip and it should come of.
Just take your time and be patient as you pull it off,some of the glue will come of with it and anything that remains you can t-cut of.
I would leave the trim on and paint it in place as long as you mask of the surrounding area it will be ok,much easier and quicker.
For the painting you will need to give them a sand using wet 'n' dry sandpaper (finest grade) and use it wet for a better finish. Wipe with a tack rag or damp cloth,apply at least 2 coats of primer,lightly sand with wet 'n' dry again,apply at least 3 light coats of your colour,when thourghly dry apply 2-3 coats of clear lacquer let it dry.
