Default what is the best way to remove the glue residue on the charge pipes?

I can get the sticker off with water, but what about the glue?

paint thinner/finger nail polish remover and just rub it with a rag.

Even WD40 works to take glue out. When I bought my hatch it had a set of those bigass APC stickers on the windows. Scraped them out with a knife, then removed the glue with wd40 and a rag.

Wow, that was a quick reply. Quit following me man! :P

Actually, I thought to try that right after I posted. I used mineral spirits tho, but it did the trick nicely. Thanks for the tip anyway. Solvent is cool! Especially with fire. FIRE! Fire! Heh, heh.
