A razor blade might do.

try those mesh type brillo pad things (not the steal wool brill pads the mesh kind.) It works great for stickers so a try on tape wouldnt hurt.

umm the razor help but still alittle sticky i'm going to if my dad has any of those around

Nail polish remover should get rid of the sticky.

If you can find straight up acetone (the "active" ingredient in nail polish remover), that would be better. No surfactants that way.

I use Goo Gone for any sticky removal....works great!

Goo Gone works and you get a citrusy smell w/ it.

Any kind of oil such as mazola oil etc will disolve the sticky also.

thats what i was going to suggest, we use it at work all the time when we have sticky messes (i work in a toy store) it works really great for stickers on the floor.
