How to get sticker off of Mac Pro 'foot'?

I was curious what product can I use to take a sticker off my Mac Pro. The sticker is on the 'foot' of the Mac Pro, right underneath the front ports.

The Mac Pro is a gorgeous machine and this sticker is driving me nuts!

Any help much appreciated, thanks!

Sometimes "Goo Gone" (oily citrus stuff) works.

There is also a paint-remover product intended to remove dried latex paint ( contains xylene) called "Goof Off" -- Danger: damages plastics and some automotive finishes as well as latex paint. It is also useful for fixing slightly glassy printer rollers.

Ronsonol lighter fluid in the yellow plastic container is 100% safe to remove any glue from automotive, electronics, and yes even computers (not screens) lol. You can use 70% iso alcohol (beware the ethyl--hehe) to clean any lcd or led screen as long as you spray the cloth and clean in a slow rotating gesture. I use bounty white one sheets only. Best buy actually sells one item worth buying. It’s their own proprietary screen cleaner which I have never seen any issues with. The only exception is most screen cleaners tend to leave a form of waxy film which prevents you from switching back and forth with different cleaners.
