Default Removing sticky tape from a chassis

Whats the best way to remove whats left of double sided sticky tape from a chassis. Ive tried to peel off some tape on my cougar sv and dont want to scratch the chassis by using a screwdriver or other sharp edge object to get rid of the remaining stuff. It was the white double sided tape i had used and it leaves some fluffy white rubbish behind that looks horrible.
Is there an easy way or am i going to have to rub with my thumb and get a blister?

I always heat the area with a hairdryer , then it just rubs off with your finger

Brake cleaner. Spray some on a rag and just give it a rub. Usually about 20 seconds max and all will be removed

I use builders `WonderWipes` They clean everything from sticky to shock oil. They come in a tub like babywipes
