RE: Heres a question for you pros
Track down a product at your local Walmart or grocery store called Goo Gone Spray Gel.
Spray it on, let it sit for a minute then just about any adhesive residue will come right off.
Follow that with alcohol and remove any residue left over from the goo gone before you try to stick anything over top of it. Don't under emphasize this step or nothing will stick well.
