I used goop off and it worked great. Then took a buffer to the back and boom....clean and good as new.

if Gel-Coat, Acetone will work well. If paint, don't use Acetone.... You could also try a eraser wheel (just like it sounds, its a giant rubber eraser on a mandrel so you can use it with a drill). You can find them at most automotive paint jobbers (some auto part stores may sell them too). Also try to add a little bit of heat to the mix. A hair dryer should be enuff to soften the glue without hurting the paint/gel. If using a heat gun, be careful too much heat will blister paint and turn Gel Coat Yellow.

You can use WD40 or 3M makes an adhesive remover that'll kick any glues azz....

Rubbing alcohol. (isopropyl) Same thing you would use to prep for new stickers.
