Default Removing emblem and glue?

I am removing the emblems from one of my cars and figure this is still relevant since there are still emblems on F-bodies.
I got the emblem off relatively easy using dental floss, but now I am wondering what is the best stuff to get the glue off the paint without hurting it too much?

If it is a painted area you can use WD-40.
When done wash with soap and water and put some wax of your choice on.

I was thinking Goo Gone but I can't seem to find my bottle and was wondering if it would hurt paint. It good to have around so I'll go get some later. Thanks Guys

3M Adhesive Remover and plastic razor blades. Worked great when I took my side moulding off. You can find them at any O'Reilly's, Napa etc..
