Default Adhesive residue

Hey guys, i got some spots of black adhesive residue left over from the plastic coverings that were on the car before it was delivered. I tried today to get it off with my claymagic bar but its not working really well, will a more agressive bar get it off? Any suggestions? Thanks

If you can get your hands on it, Acrysol. Its a solvent that body shops you to get most anything off... except clear coat.

I used Goo Gone on my 07 to get all of the residue off. Be sure to spend a good amount of time looking over the car as you will find the residue EVERYWHERE.

you can use WD40....but make sure you do it in the shade cause if you do it in direct sun your paint will peel off, and dont put a whole bunch on there, just a little
