[OM] Zuiko Solvent Abuse

I have just recieved a Silver Nose 300mm f4.5 zuiko which I bought through £b*y.
It is in very nice condition.
The band which protects the lens barrel from the tripod mounting is stuck on 
with a realy sticky goo which has seeped out over time.
Most of the goo is on the tripod mount and a little is on the lens barrel.
Is this a normal problem?
I have tried Methylated spirits on it. This does not touch it.  My next step 
was going to be Petrol (Gasoline).
Anyone had to do this?  Any problem with Petrol?
