Bennington factory folks applied a large 5" x 6" vinyl decal (company logo) over the nice faux wood grain finish on my helm, where a GPS/depth/fish finder might normally be installed.

The logo is unclassy and unecessary. The faux wood-grained helm beneath is quite attractive, except for the residual adhesive left after I removed the deal.

How do I remove the redsidual adhesive without ruining the finish below.

Why does Bennington feel such a decal is necessary?

Thanks,

I have had good luck on vehicles using a hair dryer to heat up the adhesive in order to peel off the logo/emblems in the past. Once you get the logo off I used like a goo-gone product to get the residual adhesive off. I am not sure how that would effect your particular finish but it has worked well on cars and bikes I have owned.
