There are two ways to remove adhesives which won’t come off with plain (hot) water -
#1 - Rub oil (like olive oil) into the adhesive and let it sit for a while. Scrape off and wash with soap and water.
#2 - Rub the adhesive with Citrasolv (full strength) and scrape off; wash with soap and water.

Citrasolv can be used to make an environmentally friendly all-purpose cleaner. Simply mix 2-3 tablespoons with water in a large spray bottle. Use on any surface per manufacturer’s directions on bottle.
This solution is good for mold and mildew in the bath… spray and leave on for 15-30 minutes, return and spray again, scrub.
