Removing adhesives / lacquer left by smart repairer.

[So]

We tried a new smart repairer recently, who also does "Alloygators". One of our cars has has stupid alloys that scuff really easily, so we had him fit some.

He has done a reasonable job of the smart repair, but he has left what looks like lacquer on an indicator lens and hard glue on the rim protectors.

I've asked him to come back and sort it out, but I've yet to get an appointment from him.

Is there anything I can use myself to get these things off if needs be?

No, he hasn't been paid yet!

Tried that. No improvement.

Looks like small mark from some tape, and then dirt has stuck to it

Tar remover
Petrol
Anything like that - 30 second job

Damn! In that case I'd maybe leave it alone until they come back rather than trying a cutting compound or similar which would have been my next choice.

That's my thinking. It will be his third visit...

As said, Tar remover.

Definitely try tar remover. Failing that you could give panel wipe a go, but tar remover should shift it.
