Eucalyptus oil is good too. We used to use that to get rid of price sticker residue when I worked in bookshops.

Even hairspray can help get rid of that stuff too, just be careful if you use a scotchbrite, don't use the green side it will scratch a stainless steel fridge, I know from experience on ours!

Eucalyptus oil is my best bet - fantastic stuff!! I've even used it to get tree sap off a good top of mine and it left no marks!!

Glass cleaner!!! We use to use this in a gift shop to get all the price labels off. Spray it on and leave it for a moment or two. Might need to repeat as well.

Good luck!

We used to use this at work to remove sitcky plasters, esp the ones that were on for burns. It worked a treat!!

eucalyptus oil, be careful with hairspray as it can sometimes leave marks on lacqured surfaces - we had spots on mirrors all over the salon  because of this
