I don't believe Goo-Gone is the same as Goof-Off (Goof-Off is better in this application). Made by different companies and it looks like they target different types of sticky stuff. But acetone should work well. Be aware that it will soften the binding (and a lot will melt it), so go carefully when getting close to that.
I might opt for the pure acetone, as I'm not sure I will get those products so readily living in France. I also read another thread with someone else experiencing the same issue and he used acetone before dabbing the wudtone to get more coverage before using steal wool. I used the dabbing technique on the trouble spots to get better coverage on the first coat and it looks good for the moment. I'll wait to see how it looks after rubbing it back before using the acetone.Originally Posted by Simon Barden
While waiting I shaped the heel of the neck to make it smoother. I wasn't a huge fan of how the back of the neck behind the 15th fret had relatively hard angles, so I smoothed them out. I also wasn't a fan of the black dots, so I drilled holes in them and set paua shell in them. I used a hand drill so I couldn't 100% in the middle each time, but I like the way it looks. Ice since filed them smooth too.
