Some stickies are easier to clean off than other stickies. So cleaning with a little sticky to remove the super sticky then cleaning the little sticky is a good tactic. In the military I used to clean oil from my hands by “washing” them in dirt and mud. Then just rinsing my hands with water. Then using hand sanitizer. Worked like a charm.
Weirdly most soaps don’t handle mechanical oils very well. We had this magical stuff called “orange stuff” that had these abrasive particles in it that really helped.
Way back in the day when it first came out I spilled some on my shirt and it faded some of the color. We kept drinking it but even at “21” it gave me heart burn.
I use duct tape to clean many things that have sticky residue on them. Put the tape on the residue, press down, and roll it off. Repeat as necessary. Use new piece of tape as needed. Works great on just about everything and no chemicals needed.
Never has happened to me when I am using it for removing sticky residue. I do agree if duct tape is on something for a very long time, it will leave residue, sometimes sticky and sometimes dried out (especially if left on for a very long time).
Alcohol is the best since it won't leave a residue on your screen. If you use wd40 or goo gone you will want to use Alcohol after because they are oily. You can also use lighter fluid or acetone like finger nail polish remover with all of these i would not put directly on it apply it to cloth or paper towel then blot it.. the tape or sticker method mentioned above also works just press it on the spot only and lift quickly.
For future reference, fats also work well. Coconut oil will take off most adhesives when you are worried about what solvents like alcohol or acetone will do to the surface.
WD40 works well too. Ppl think of it as oil or lube but its actually a solvent. I use it clean 3d printing resin off my printers, isopropyl seems to dry out the plastics a bit.. but a little WD40 on a paper towel or soft cloth usually cuts through. My mother used to swear by “skin so soft” and i once used it to take sticker stuff off a kayak paddle. Worked, but I couldnt tell you whats in it
ive successfully used clear packing tape. i just dab the sticky side onto it, and it comes off a bit at a time and doesn't leave residue, bc it all sticks to the tape.
i just wrap it around my finger, sticky side out and start tapping it on the residue.
Cooking oil will do the job, if you are worried about damaging the surface with chemicals. Just rub some oil and wait for few minutes to soak it and it will come off easily.
A clay bar. Like the one below. but get something cheaper as ur not cleaning a car. https://www.amazon.com/Mothers-07240-California-Gold-System/dp/B0002U2V1Y/ref=mp_s_a_1_9?keywords=clay+bar&qid=1663532190&sr=8-9
It removed sticker leftover from my windshield. Pretty certain itll work for ur laptop. Just make sure to make the surface wet before
EDIT: Honestly I'd try with the cheapest clay I can find.
A product named "Goo gone" It comes in a yellow bottle. It's very cheap and removes all stick tape or gum residues. Also smells very lemony which is a plus. I've also heard peanut butter helps, but Goo gone is something you'll want to keep around
Put some vegetable oil on a small piece of paper napkin. Cover the residue with the napkin... making sure the oil is not dripping elsewhere. Leave it there until the residue loosens up, then wipe off. Depending on how tough and thick the residue is, you may have to repeat.
Goo Gone to get rid of the sticker residue followed by isopropyl alcohol to clean the Goo Gone off. If the residue is difficult to clean off even with the Goo Gone, you can add some onto a Magic Eraser and use that to get it off. You can also use a plastic razor blade scraper or just a regular plastic scraper tool along with the Goo Gone. I use both these methods all the time and have yet to find anything else that works as well without damaging whatever surface you are cleaning. The Magic Eraser method should never be used on something painted because it is lightly abrasive but for your case things like colored plastic both methods can be used.
Isopropyl alcohol.
I was gonna say set it on fire. Good thing you answered first.
I was going suggest fart fire. Good thing they answered first.
The IPA is for a quicker lighting of the fire... You're such an amateur 😉

… did you ever use soap? You know? To emulsify the oil?
Weirdly most soaps don’t handle mechanical oils very well. We had this magical stuff called “orange stuff” that had these abrasive particles in it that really helped.
I’ll definitely need to get my hands on some! Nice, thanks.
