U will still need to use razor blades to scrap off the adhesive.

I've read up quite extensively on all these before.
Cos i tried to remove old double sided tape stains on my front door. 

That's why i have the adhesive remover. In the end it reduced the old stains negligibly. 

 

I use zippo lighter fluid to remove adhesive stains. It will remove even those dried up stains. But hor, I see the number of stickers, I would say forget it. Just get a can of paint and paint over the stickers.

Yeah I will just paste over a wallpaper pvc type of sticker. Just freshen up the look also.
