How to get rid of glue on GRP?

I've stupidly used spray adhesive to stick on the tadpole bead between rear wings and body and got it everywhere.

Anybody know the best think to get this off easily that won't damage the gel coat.

I'd cover the whole car with vinyl.

What sort of spray adhesive is it ?

A light oil like 3-in-1 should take it off without damaging the gel coat. It gets it off upholstery and fingers. I must confess this was a tip from Mark Evens in 'A Car is Reborn'.
