What is the best way to remove tape and glue?

Yesterday I drove through a deep pothole with my car and my front gfx got ripped off and all of the tape and glue that is still on there looks terrible so I am going to clean it up in the morning so it dosent look that bad until I get it fixed and molded on. Does anybody have any tips that will make the job easier? I was thinking of just using the blow drier and roll method but thats a pain. Is there something else that I can do that will make the job faster and not damage or dull the paint?



Thanks

Alcohol, wax and grease remover, or adhesive remover should all be safe for paint. It will obviously remove the wax though.

A product called goo gone should be safe and works good also.

Another vote for Goo-Gone, the stuff works really well.
