Orange clean is another good option. (based on orange oil)

These something called \"goo off\" what works well, also citrus based cleaner seems to work wonders too.
If you had access to a car like this, would you take it back right away? Neither would I.

Depends what kind of glue ...

That orange clean stuff is good, as is euc oil and goo off (though I think the last has been discontinued??)

or stuff called UN-DO.. from a craft scrapbooking store.. it works well when removing stickers too.. it still keeps them sticky so you can reapply.. :)
