Brake cleaner usually works well. =A0(Sometimes a little too well)
You can either use it alone or with the Goo-Gone to remove the residuals.
If the Goo-Gone is having trouble, there is this stuff called OOPS! multi-p=
urpose remover that is like a half-way between the Goo-Gone and brake clean=
er.
Both the OOPS! and the break cleaner smell really bad, so it's best to do i=
t outside, otherwise the solvent fumes will give you more senior moments.

Cheers,
Robert
