Have a go with some WD40, that should loosen it up a bit.

I use a wheel like THIS. Attaches to drill, quick and easy.

If its stubborn, try using some sticky badge remover solution stuff from either Halfords or any hardware store.

 

Wet a cloth with it, soak the strip line then gently rub off..

white spirit and elbow grease

 

dab the white spirit on with a cloth and let it soak then it should come off with a clean cloth

 

or!! a steam cleaner

Why dont you use preptone from autosmart, its fantastic, does loads of other things like de-taring your motor, its safe on paint too?

I'm ashamed to say I'd use a soft cloth soaked in 2 stroke petrol from the lawnmower's can
