3M adhesive remover will do it, eventually. I have found the best method is to soak the glue for a while, until it gets rubbery, then roll it off with your fingers. You will have sore hands at the end. You also have to watch out for welding spatter/slag, as rubbing across what should be smooth steel will prove to have a few spots that might just cut you.

I once read in a Porsche manual somewhere that they recommended gasoline to remove old glue. I've always wanted to try this, just in case it actually works.

Naturally, you'd want to do it outside, with good ventilation, very limited quantities of the gas, plus all of the other safety precautions you could probably think of.
