When I was 16 I bought that MacBook and I put a bunch of random stickers on it. I took them off today and they left this residue… how can I get it off without damaging the finish?

    Nail polish remover/acetone.

    Actually if you use the acetone while you’re peeling the stickers it’ll deactivate the adhesive leaving behind no residue and once the acetone dries off the stickers they’ll be sticky again and you can restick them somewhere else. Just use a syringe and go slow, get a corner or edge of the stick up with your nail or something then use the needle to apply acetone while slowly peeling the sticker.

    This video show cases the technique
