Need advice, adhesive material on dashboard
Hey guys, looks like the previous owner stuck some type of mount on the dash and left behind a serious patch of double sided tape or something.. I tried picking at it but its on there pretty good 
Now Im thinking something along the lines of using chemicals but dont want to ruin the dash. Any suggestions? 
Thanks for any input

Use a safe solvent; d-limonene (3M Citrus Base Spray Adhesive Remover, Wurth Citrus Degreaser or P21S Total Auto Wash) that does not contain any harmful components (butyl, heptanes or xylene or hydrocarbon aliphatic solvents)
With all cleaning products (especially solvents) always test a small inconspicuous area first to ensure it won't discolour, stain or etch the surface, and ensure that the pH of the product is suitable for the material
