Default Pin Stripes Removed?

I bought my wife a 2003 murano, and the previouse owner had a thing for pin stripes, I took those pin stripe stickers off, and now there is addhesive that is stuck to the paint.

What do you guys recomend to use to take off the addhesive/glue?

One of my buddies said to use a decal remover that has a rubber wheel that spins and eats away at stickers/glue but doesnt eat the paint?

Begin with something simple like a one-step wax. If that fails try Goo Gone.

Yes. I would never recommend anything that I have not used myself.

+1 WD-40 is safe on almost anything and will take glue/adhesives off of most everything.

I would use goo gone but you could try an assortment of things and see which works best for you and then you know what works the best if you ever need to in the future?

does this WD-40 work on adhesive?? dried adhesive.. someone poured a little around my fairlady emblem and it's been really ugly looking when the car is waxed... Goo gone does almost nothing to it... its those really strong small bottled superglue that stick your hands together in a few seconds..
