removing decals?

The decals on my Miele are all ripped up so i've decided to take them off and just have a bare frame. I can take them off pretty easily but they leave a sticky residue. Is there anyway to take this residue off? I've tried goof-off but that has only spread the residue around instead of removing it. Is there a better way/product i can use to take this off?

Yeah... Goo Gone. Might take a few passes, but it should work - and your frame will smell like oranges, or at least a reasonable chemical facsimile.

I'd fifth the goo gone, but no-ones mentioned WD40 which woks great for dissolving adhesive in a pinch.
