My 0.02 worth is to find some Ronsonol or Zippo lighter fluid.  A little bit
on a cotton swab will emulsify and lift off all the old
gunk/adhesive/what-have-you without being injurious to the paint or plastic.
I've tried just about everything (alcohol, orange-off, commercial adhesive
removers) and keep coming back to Ronsonol.  Plus, it's relatively
inexpensive, and available just about everywhere.

I'm having real trouble finding denatured alcohol to clean off gunk 
from old light seals. Would isopropyl be ok, or am I going to strip 
paint and generally melt things with it?

THanks,

James
