Label glue on a blank

What is the best way to remove glue residue left by a manufacturer's label? Isoppropyl alcohol is what I am using but it is a pain to get the stuff off... Any suggestions?

WD-40 is great for getting rid of glue. Lighter fluid works very well too.

Denatured alcohol seems to work better for me. "GOO-GONE" will also remove the adhesive very quickly, but you then need to be sure to clean the area with alcohol to get off the oil that is in the GOO-GONE.

To get rid of glue on a blank I use alcohol (ethilic 96º-MED Grade). Never let´s You down!

Butane works very well to clean off that stuff.

I like charcoal lighter fluid. It's cheap and always near by.
