Sticker Stain on MBP

Hello!

I recently peel of my stickers from my macbook pro. But, there are stickers that left a white patch / stain. While other stickers didn't left any stain. Is there a way of fixing it without bringing it to the apple service or getting additional fees? Im hoping for an answer. Thanks for your help!

Model : Macbook Pro 15-inch Space Grey, 2016

MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 10.15

MacBook sticker discoloration Hey Guys. I wanna sell my MBP. So i just removed an Ableton (Music Soft-/Hardware Company) sticker from the Logo and this discoloration remained. So i thought these stickers are designed for exactly this purpose (i know, they will disagree), how can that be? Can somebody help me out? cheers, Jules

Apple Sticker on MacBook pro 16. Sticker Stain Hello, I used the Apple sticker that came with the MacBook Pro 16 2019 in the box. Now that I've decided to remove it and sell my macbook and buy a new model, does it look so awful? look so ugly. There is no way to remove this. i tried to clean it! So i have two questions - 1) why does Apple put its sticker in a box if after applying it to the case there are such consequences? 2) does it say in the operating rules that you can’t stick any stickers on the macbook case? To be honest, I'm shocked. I always try to keep the look of my laptop so that I can change it every 2 years and buy a new model and I don’t understand the logic of Apple that put this sticker in the box.

STAIN GATE Mac Book Pro 14" 2021, Still has same keyboard Screen Marks Stain Gate Issue Yet again just like on my 2015 MBP my brand new 2021 14inch Mac Book has begun getting the keyboard imprints on the screen. Laptop has been in my possession for 3 days hasn't left my desk yet and already seeing the marks appearing. Which everyone whose experienced this will know eventually progresses to permanent "Key Cap Shaped" marks on the display rendering it unusable. A £3,000 + machine and still the same problems as 2015. Apple clearly haven't learnt their lesson and are now going to get a fresh claim from myself every time I can't a new stain meaning a new screen replacement out of the pockets. So sick this awful design process.

They didn't leave a white spot, what has happened is that the metal under the sticker did not oxidize and turn a darker shade of gray. Instead it's clean like when it was new. This is common with lots of materials when you cover them with stickers. Now, if that is left-over adhesive, then you can clean it off.
