Sticker Leftover Help!!

Some douche decided to put a sticker on the trunk and it's been sitting there since 2006. The glue from the sticker has pretty muck baked on to the paint.

Do you guys know what works best to remove the glue residue? I've tried GooGone and it didn't really work

BAD idea. you have to be SOOOO careful or your gonna **** your paint up.

just use an adhesive remover and it will come off. might just take a little bit of time.
