Default Help Removing old SeaCraft Decal residue

Hey Guys,
I did the whole heat gun removal thing with my old decals on my 23 CC. I want to remove the old Glue Residue before putting the new decals on. Any idea of what to use? I am using mineral spiris now and its a nightmare getting all of it off. Any suggestions?

Thx a lot. Happy boating!!!!!

There are aerosol products available used by auto body shops to remove adhesive. 3M makes one - you should be able to find them at an auto parts place (NAPA) etc.
