Default Removing left over door rubber?

Any tips for removing the sticky stuff thats left over from old door rubbers?
Looks like some kind of thin double sided tape - but its 32 years old and some of it has pieces of rubber still stuck to it.
Any easy way to remove this or do i have to keep scraping it all off with a scraper?

A hairdryer will generally help.
There's this awesome citrus based glue remover available at Bunnings that I have used and is great. It's called oomph.
