OK so I bought several pieces of plastic and they are all sorts of colours that I wanna make in to a set.
I cleaned the plastic with T cut kinda stuff and I heated the various stickers with the eldest brat's hair drier and pulled them off.
The problem is the surface is still sticky with what looks like alayer of glue film.
What is the best way to get that crap off without damaging the plastic underneath?
Thanks in Advance.........

wd40 or mr sheen furniture polish is supposed to be good. But make sure the areas fully degreased afterwards if you go for the WD40 option

well I tried some lemon scented cleaner = useless
the eldest brats nail polish remover with acetone content= if i had 6 months it might eventually get the stuff off
Mr- sheen = soak for 30 secs and away it comes
thanks Stig
