WD40 will take it right off.

I used 3M adhesive remover, in a spray can. Worked great. Just spray some on the corner of a rag and wipe it off.

Brake cleaner works well also.

When the glue is gone, I use Windex and 0000 steel wool.

Reminded me that I wanted to remove the sticker on the luggage rack, just did and WD40 took the residue glue right off.

I use Goo-Gone. Won't hurt almost any finish and smells good.
