Adhesive from sticker on new car

A coworker has some adhesive left on his brand new black Ford F150 from a dealer sticker he removed. I tried to remove it with ONR quick detailer but it didn't work . Is it OK to use some polish to take it off? It is a small amount but somewhat sticky.

Use some "Goof Off", it'll take it right off.

3m adhesive remover should work as well

Thanks for your replies. I don't have any of these items at hand. Would Optimum power clean work?

Yep.. works great. Just get it off as soon as possible.

Goof Off is pretty good too. Or if you have a steam cleaner you can try that too.

+1 for this. If this is too weak, then move to wd40 or even gasoline.
