take the alcohol swap from your office and try

i find the alcohol swap works for me but still need quite a bit of elbow grease when i was removing oyama sticker residue from my fish tank.. it was pasted on more than 5yrs ago

That's what i used years ago and got the stain down to a thin film.
But didn't help beyond that. ha yeah alcohol swab i have plenty.

use the alcohol swap and let the residue soak in it awhile... then use a rough cloth and rub it hard..... should work....

 

if it don't work... at least you exercise your arm lol

I got some old magazine stuck together.

Anyone has any ideas?

400 grit sandpaper. Hahhahah.

Just joking.

Baby oil works and is not expensive. You might consider a plastic razor scraper for maximum result.

I second Johnson baby oil,  quite amazing as a remover.  But I think even if you manage to remove it after 5 years, it would still leave behind a mark on the door. 

I have scotch tapes on my main door for paper talisman, and every time i remove them sure will have a deeper colored mark left behind. 

Dont remove the talisman  ... its dangerous to let u out 😜😁

3M sticker remover works well. Spray it on, leave it to soak for a bit, top up the spray after 10min to let it soak all the way thru. 

Test it on an unseen varnished area of the door first. 

I tried it on ur certificate... it works well. 😄

Have some old (5 years old) sticky residue from double sided tape on my front door (zzz leftover from 5 years ago when i used double sided tape for CNY decorations). 
I tried to remove it back then but then procrastinated cos i was busy then. Then haha now it's 5 years on.

Scrapping it doesn't work cos it's just a very thin residue that u can see and hardly feel.

It's the usual laminated type of door. Anyway to remove it without damaging the laminate?

Other than Rubbing alcohol, any other suggestions?

White vinegar  😏

[Yeobh]

Baking powder and vinegar will do the work

Another solution is to paste a bigger sticker over the old one.

 

[Davidklt]

Just some olive oil would do.
