Any tips to easily (effortless ) remove the leftover glue from the balance weights on the wheel rim?
I can't seem to find a good system without rubbing wheel cleaner with a brush for ages on it...

Lighter fluid works great. Better than goof-off and the like.

Mineral spirits is my poison of choice for cleaning the chain and for getting off sticky stuff. Works well and doesn't leave any residue.

3M General Purpose Adhesive Remover. Pricey, but highly effective. NAPA sells.

Yeah thanks too guys,

I have been unsuccessfully using kerosine but it won't budge the stuff.
