The stinky solvent fumes pretty much rise exponentially when using other paint thinners or de greasers so bear that in mind. Never gasoline.
Edit: If talking frame tubes, I have found that any automotive paste wax will dissolve the T-9 residue with some gentle massage but just watch out for grit on your paint/chrome.
Thanks for the tip. I ended up using alcohol and it worked out.
