What to use to remove sticky glue residue from wheel weights?

Your adhesive doesn't look that stuck on at all, you should be able to use a heat gun and aggitate it with a microfiber towel and it should come right

If it's old adhesive then you can go with the more aggressive options that people are suggesting

I have one wheel that it's absolutely impossible to remove the residue from

I have my fingers crossed

Haven't had the time to remove the residue yet

I'll probably work on it tomorrow
