Get some clay bar and use it on those parts. It should come off pretty easy. Stay away from sandpaper. The most aggressive I went was 0000 steel wool, and that was on a super bad car

Usually most of it'll come out fine with a normal over the counter clay bar. Look for Meguiars in your local store. Another option you might or might not want to try is paint thinner. I'd probably use paint thinner for spot treatments on the stubborn spots though since it'll warp any plastic or rubber that it touches...
