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!

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.
