How do you get sticker glue off your paint?

Hi, I have an 04' Suzuki GSXR and I took the stickers off the back tail and there is glue residue left. I have tried to use Goo Gone, Bug&Tar Remover, cleaner wax and nothing is helping to get it off.
Any suggestions?
 
Goo Gone and a toothbrush works for me. Brush it in circles just like the dentist taught you to brush your teeth. If the bristles are stiff enough then it should help out. Something else that might help is if you heated it up with a hair dryer first. That should melt the glue enough that you will have an easier job of it.

Yeah, I just tried it and they stuff won't budge. It's like superglue or something.
 
Its not sticky at all? Have you tried a razor blade or anything like that? What kind of sticker was it? Was it a dealer badge or a factory emblem or just graphics?
 
maybe

My friend had a 2002 Honda and he removed the stickers also. Turns out they clearcoated right over the honda stickers and it left an imprint. It had to be wet sanded. Post a picture of it.
 
I tried a razor blade but I'm very careful with it because I don't want to chip the paint. But it is factory stickers. But my friend did the same thing on his bike and it came right off with goo gone. So I don't know.

I would post a pic. but I don't have a digital camera.
 
GO find some general purpose cleaner by 3M, I found mine at the auto body supply store. That stuff works great on adhesives and bugs and tar and........ plus it won't harm the paint!

If it Floats, Rolls or Flyes, I can make it shine!
