To remove sticker residue from shrinkwrap, use mineral spirits painter thinner found in any hardware store. To remove a paper sticker, use a dampened with water paper towel and gently rub off paper until sticker residue appears and then use the mineral spirits. Be careful that there are no holes in the wrapped area that you’re working on. I’ve used this technique literally a thousand times with great success. Sometimes you’ll find residue that is alcohol based. In that case use 90% denatured alcohol.
