Removal of non-factory decals; major glue residue left behind
I recently purchased a 2016 artic white Stingray. Very satisfied with the car, however, I was not too thrilled about the black after market decals the previous owner put on the roof and hood of the vehicle. I used a blow dryer and slowly peeled off said decals (took a little over an hour). To my absolute horror, what remained was a coating of cream/yellow glue or residue that looks like it doesn't want to come off without a fight. I figured there would be some residue but I guess I'm freaking out a bit because it looks like absolute $hit and I'm worried about potential damage. Can anyone suggest a product that will get this crap off my car without damaging the paint? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

On a recommendation I picked up this stuff, it works pretty well, I would say better than goo gone.
