adhesive remover

[z12358]

Any recommendations on good and safe products for removing adhesive residue from paint? After I took off the crappy racing tape (door numbers for DE) it left some glue on the paint.
Thx much,

Hi,

I always like the old standby - Prepsol. It will work great on adhesives as well as Tar and other nasty stuff w/o harming the paint. It's good stuff to have around, you'll find more uses than you'd have thought of...

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99

Z are you using Zaino? Put a little Z2 on it and see if it will loosen it.

Thx Jim, I'll give Prepsol a try.
bmuss, I haven't used Zaino. After your heads-up I got their new Clear Seal and was planning to give it a try soon.

3m also makes a paint-safe adhesive remover.

I found Goo Gone at Home Depot today (didn't have the 3M remover). Has anyone used it, and will it damage the paint? Jim, where can one get Prepsol?
