Cleaning a slab

I purchased a coin and the previous owner had placed 2 stickers on the slab. There is a glue residue. What can I use to clean it?

    Rubbing alcohol or lamp oil usually does the trick for me. There's a product called Goo-Gone, but I haven't used it for this purpose myself, so I don't want to say whether or not it is safe to use on slabs. I'll leave that to someone else. If you don't get much response here, you might want to post this on the US Coin Forum.

    Goo gone is just citrus oil. Use a q tip and a little at a time. Peace Roy

    GOO GONE ON, STICKER GONE. Don't rush, let the chemical soak in.
