Many detail shops use a product called Acrocyl to remove adhesives. It's not sold retail. Check with a cardealer's detail shop or parts dept. or try a body shop to buy a small quantity. Bring your own container.

... I used goo be gone but you gotta let that stuff set on there for awhile. Maybe 15 mins. After the adhesive got melted I then used a soft plastic squeegee to scrap it off. A old credit will also work. Keep wiping the squeegee with paper towel as the adhesive comes off. Make sure you clean the sill plate very well after your done so the new sill plate well.

Just tried that. It removed the sticky but not the product. It seems like there is a thin membrane of adhesive tape.
