Can get a cracking product called Goo Gone.....

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Goo-Gone-Large-Sti...V2ANCDK6R0

Not cheap but it is the Dog's Censored .... I use it on all sorts of materials... best thing ever for removing the adhesive mess left by head lamp deflectors after coming back from abroad....

I just use a pressure washer from approx. 12" away to get rid of the foam part of the sticker, autoglym tar remover and then a Autoglym polish.
