How to clean glue residue off truck hood

I stripped 5 year old vinyl graphics off my truck hood yesterday . The vinyl was sun checked/cracked . Had to remove with heat gun and plastic putty knife . Fun job . Anyway I now have this glue residue to clean up .

I tried goof off citrus gel it didn't touch it . I tried acetone and that worked OK. The paint lifted in a few spots so repaint is needed . As of yesterday the glue was still sticky . So do I hit this with acetone ? Or do I use a sander and take it to bare metal ?
