I need to pull mine in prep for painting. I've read everything I can and watched some videos, but I'm still confused regarding removing the trim. Other than cutting through any sealant/gunk, what do you need to do to free the trim from the clips (assuming they're still there)? Use a tool like Chris Foley's to push the trim off the clip?

A plastic trim tool works well, just run it under the trim and twist slightly at the clips. They will probably break so be prepared to pull the glass to replace them. If you find the trim glued down some fishing line can be used to "saw" thru the gunk.
