Your suggestion of peeling the plastic shrink covering off the caps worked like a charm! The adhesive was mostly around the edge of the caps, which was covered with the plastic. The caps popped right off after I split the covering down one side, then added a few more slits around each cap at the very bottom.

Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience mbhcid!
