try spraying a little WD40 on it. this usually works better than finger nail polish remover or anything with acetone in it, and doesnt strip the paint.

Lemon furniture polish worked really well for me. :)

How do you get sticker residue off an ipod?

Things you need -wash cloth -item to get sticker residue off -vegetable oil -3 paper towels Okay so this is what i did... I took the wash cloth and put a little bit of vegetable oil in the middle.. Like just enough to see it on the wash cloth. Then fold it in half and squeeze until you can feel some moist wash cloth ( hence the veggie oil.) Then gently take the wash cloth and rub it against the sticker residue and it should come right off. It might take up to 3 minutes so be patient. Then take a paper towel and rub off your fingers of the vegetable oil. Then take the next one and wipe it against the iPod to get most of it off. Then take the last one and rub hard on the iPod where there might be any vegetable oil left. (if it is "slippery" then that's where you want to wipe the paper towel on. Next-wash your hands. Finally- keep in in your pocket for at least 15 minutes and then Voila! you have a clean shiny sticker residue free iPod! Or whatever else your using this for.

What household solvent will removing adhesive used for car decals from metal?

The best remover of glues that I have used is lighter fluid for Zippo lighters. === === There are many solvents available at your local auto parts supply store which work, BUT the most important step to make any solvent work much better is to break the weather resistant surface seal of the sticker by the use of sandpaper. Be careful to sand only the decal or sticker, not the metal surface! The breaking of the weather resistant surface of the decal or sticker will allow much better penetration of whichever solvent is used, and thus shorten the time required to remove the sticker. === === An 80 year old lady told me this trick, and it works. Once you have the sticker/decal peeled off, use eucalyptus oil to remove the sticky residue left behind.

How do you get the sticker residue off a new exterior door?

what I've read and I've tried this believe me this works... collect saliva in a bucket and leave it in the sun for a day, brush it over your door to not only to remove residue of stickers but to repel stickers in the future. I know It's wierd but it works. Or, you can try WD-40 or "Goof Off"-this works better.
