WD40 works well for me. Good luck and keep us posted on what you do.

Use a razor blade to get off as much as possible of the label or paper. Then use just a small piece of cotton, like in vitamin and Rx bottles, wear gloves and use some lighter fluid. It's really good at getting off gum, sticky stuff, even stains in clothes, you don't know what they are. Use lighter fluid and scrub the stain with it, then pre-treat with something that cleans oily stuff. It lifts all kinds of things.

Believe it or not, good old peanut butter works. I've used it to remove many stickers, and the residue they leave.

I use SOS pads, they work great. I recycle my jars and cans and a lot of them have the glue strip on them to hold the labels and the SOS does the job

Re-Mov silicone and adhesive remover works well with me and it also removes gum and lots of sticky messes. Lots more than goo gone or lift off. There web page is www.re-mov.com

Fingernail polish remover and some elbow grease.

I have heard using a hairdryer on the sticker will lift it right off.

W-D 40 spray it on and scrub it off. Works every time with very little effort.

I've had good luck with a product called Goo Gone. It sells in a small bottle, maybe 8 ounces, and can be purchased at places like WalMart and Lowes.
