Lighter fluid is a good one for the glue left by badges and the likes.

Hi Mate,

When I removed the Le-Mans stickers from my car I had a little glue/gum line left around where they had expanded and contracted, I was advised by the sticker company to use methelated spirit (specifically not white spirit) to remove it.

Worked a treat
