      I used Ooops to get the sticker residue off. It worked well, but do not leave it on too long.

        Sounds kinda weird, but the rubber lining of the inside of a tennis ball actually works very well. Only problem is that it mars the finish a little bit so it will need to be buffed out. For me it didn't matter b/c I was painting it anyway. But it took the residue off with some good rubbing.

          Contact HS2020 and order some Citrol. It will remove that gunk in no time (and it won't hurt the paint)

              try lacquer thinner? or a heat gun... just warm it up and scrape it away.

                Lacquer thinner works every time.

                  3m adhesive removal is da bomb..... wont haze a finish like lacquer thinner can do. We use it on brand new cars at the dealership.

                    Kinda expensive compared to goof-goof. But worth it.

                      Kerosene will work like a charm.

                        3M adhesive remover is AWESOME stuff I use it in the shop as well. I took my stickers off after it fell over and removed the glue with a 3M adhesive wheel. You can get them at your local paint supply store and it goes in either a drill or die grinder. Either use a regulator to slow down the pressure or go real slow it won't burn your paint if you take your time.

                              I used a pencil eraser. Worked great.
