I used 'Professional Strength Label & Sticker Remover". After a couple of applications and some warm water, I was able to sctrach off the goo with my finger nail.... and make sure you wax after you do that.

WD-40

You can even try polish. Klasse all-in-one would do it...

Wd-40 should take care of it though.

Acetone works good, but give WD40 a shot!
