How to remove adhesive

[redka]

I made the mistake of putting camo tape(paper type, not duct tape type)on my Rem 1100 several years ago, on the wood and on the metal.I peeled it all off today, but itleft the adhesive on. Anyone know what I can use to remove it without damaging the polyurethane on the wood or the blue on the metal? Or another website that might offer help. Thanks...I won't do it again!

Peanut butter works about as good at getting stubborn adhesives off as anything I have ever found.

Thank you. I'll give thema try. Anyone else?

Try some citrus orange cleaner, nothing better to remove adhesive.

Mayo also does a decent job.

Had the same problem when I would leave the tape on for a couple of years.On my model 70 with a syn.stock I used fingernail polish remover with good results.DON'T use brake cleaner.

MEK (Methyl Ethyl Ketone). It's available at Home Depot or Lowes.

Goo Gone or rubbing alcohol.
