[QUOTE="astroboy, post: 337860, member: 4527"] All adhesive materials are having more or less the same hydrocarbon bondage molecules, which is an organic substance originated from crude oil.. that's why WD40 will work but I still find WD40 is too corrosive, even though less corrosive compared to petrol, or the ciggy lighter fuel, or nail polish removal (this very corrosive, its a mild kind of paint thinner). Going back to the source, what is the less corrosive among all crude oil products and yet, liquid enough to soak in and breakdown the adhesive materials? Soap (palm oil product) will work but too mild... soap is more suitable at a later stage for cleaning up.. :p I find engine oil works fine! rub it on, give it a message to rub it in, the goo will come out easily and slipperily, use your hand because body heat will help acting like an enzyme to the process ... :D then only bring out the soap, wax later.
