    patience, heat gun/hair dryer, dull razorblade, goo-gone/goof-off, more patience, & elbow grease.

    I have goof-off but heard that can really mess up your board...Is there a safer way?

    De Solve it. I use it to remove wax residue. It is all natural citrus oil and has never hurt any of my boards.

    Goo gone wont hurt your board. Never tried goo off before. Let it sit for a while then take the flat edge of a wax comb or an old drivers license (my preference ) and scrape away. Might have to repeat a cpl times.
