I have had good luck with Goof Off from the hardware store.  Also, VM&P 
Naptha works well.

Subject: removing contact cement




Does anyone have recommendations regarding how to
remove contact cement from painted surfaces?  For
example, if a gasket or trim comes off of an auto
and needs to be reattached but there is contact
cement residue (the typical yellow cement), is there
something that will release the old cement without
harming the paint?

Most cement cans, like the Weldwood that I have,
says to use mineral spirits for cleanup but before
I try it I thought I'd ask.  The paint is enamel.

Thanks.
