    I had a similar problem and tried all sorts of stuff and couldnt remove a residue from a sticker. Im a pretty practical person and tried all of the above like wd40,acetone, white spirit etc.

    A bit of googling later and found peanut butter as a possible option. desperate i tried it and it only worked, couldnt believe it.

    The oil in it is what does the job it seems, so if nonoe of the regular options work give that a go.

    Could try baby oil which is good for removing marks from stainless steel as well.

    Any oil removes the glue left by stickers.
