Hi everyone,
I have a Flipper max and I am replacing the pad on the magnet. I pulled the pad off and it left a whole bunch of very very sticky adhesive. I cannot get this to come off, has anyone had any luck?
I'm sure it will probably come off with chemicals but I don't want to go that route. I have tried vinegar and also alcohol with no luck.

WD-40 will remove it, then soak in vinegar followed by RO water.
