3M adhesive remover. Five bucks for a can at walmart or your local auto store.

Spray on, let sit for 30 seconds, gently wipe away. Repeat as necessary.


You could also use goo gone or the myriad of petroleum based products. Same instructions as above.

Don't do it in the sun or on a hot panel.

Another vote for the 3M. And it won't leave your car/hands smelling like half of a PB&J sandwich, lol.

Very steady hand and a razor blade.
