Here is how I would do it if working with a large number of "to remove" values that would take a long time to manually remove.

• -Put Original List in Column A -Put To Remove list in Column B -Select both columns, then "Conditional Formatting"
  -Select "Hightlight Cells Rules" --> "Duplicate Values"
  -The duplicates should be hightlighted in both columns
  -Then select Column A and then "Sort & Filter" ---> "Custom Sort"
  -In the dialog box that appears, select the middle option "Sort On" and pick "Cell Color"
  -Then select the next option "Sort Order" and choose "No Cell Color" "On bottom"
  -All the highlighted cells should be at the top of the list. -Select all the highlighted cells by scrolling down the list, then click delete.
