I used a 3m wheel. I forget the exact name of it, but it goes on the end of your drill and its like an "eraser." Nothing worked better than my thumb though.

I just ordered one of those eraser wheels so I am hoping it works better than all the liquids I have tried.

Use the 3M eraser wheel for the big stuff, and a product called De-Solvit for the residue. I probably remove badges, stickers, or moldings off 10 cars a week, and that's the right combo.
