All the 7-cog, department-store, freewheels I've worked with (all 4 of them) used the FR-1.

Also, to remove sticker goo, I use a cotton ball dipped in kerosene. It doesn't affect the paint, but dissolves the goo. Rubbing alcohol may work too. I would test either in an inconspicuous area to see if it affects the paint.
