VM&P Naphtha works, and won't damage paint. Lighter fluid is the same thing, but more expensive. Don't use nail polish remover. It's acetone with perfume added and it can damage some paints and plastics.

I have a trophy shop and I use naphtha all the time to clean plaques and remove double faced tape. It's about $13 a gallon at Lowe's and you can buy it in quarts too.

Default reflector removal

very simple to remove, just use some fishing line and with a sawing motion the reflector comes right off. if some of the adhesive remains use heat gun and finished. takes decal off trucks bikes etc

Hair dryer and windex. Heat and pull. 30 seconds with the hair dryer on the left over gunk and you can get it off with your thumb. Windex just for final cleaning. I had dental floss, goof off, fishing line... didn't need any of it.

I have a gummy wheel I bought to remove pin stripes from a car. Its like a big gummy yellow eraser we had as kids. Throw it in the drill and Makes quick work of stickers and double sided tape. I have used it on every vehicle I have owned for the last 10yrs and no damage to the paint.
