Orange peel is also good. They actually sell special sticky label remover which is made from orange peel, smells of orange anyway.
Or the same process as BS stated but with white spirit!
3GGG - had a friend move into a new house and tried a whole bottle of that stuff to remove the sticky labels from the side of the new bath but with no avail - then i asked them if they'd remove the protective film first - oops said they!
Cheers guys will give these tips a bash.

ps sorry I did not make the Glencoe run I was watching out for you all as I was up there but did not see anyone.
Bazza we use a glue remover at work which wont harm paintwork, do you need any?.:)
John thanks for the offer of the glue remover,I am down in Cumbernauld so a bit out the way to pick it up,I will try the white spirit or petrol first and if no joy will give you a shout and arrange something.
ta much.Bas
