You can do it that way....if you like taping things up for no reason....or just buy the Craftsman 2 pc 16'' Rubber Strap Wrench Set that I mentioned and twist it off. These bands are way too thick to snap, gives you enough leverage unless you got little girl arms...and your shift knob will be in pristine condition when you are done and you don't have to remove any tape either.....

Before I did mine I was at the nissan dealer and asked the service rep how they remove them. He told me to wait a few minutes and came back with a photo copy of a page out of their service manual. It showed a drawing of how to use they use a strap wrench and a pair of channel locks to hold the shaft.
