A solvent (paint thinner, WD-40, etc.) can be used on the door sticker with no harm. That sticker is covered with a clear sheet, so the solvent won't affect the ink. Only if something has leaked beneath the sheet and gotten to the sticker itself will it be damaged.

Thanks, I have yet to try anything out of sheer nervousness. LOL!

I have used WD-40 before, with a shop rag. It takes lots of rubbing, as WD-40 is not that aggressive towards cured paint.
