Wow!  That's amazing.  I rather think those used to be
rubber.  Suggest mineral spirits, naptha (lighter fluid), GooGone,
similar stuff.  In desperation, acetone but it's nasty stuff, attacks
*many* things.

And/or a razor-blade scraper.

Could try freezing it piecemeal with "canned air" held upside down --
might scrape off clean then.

Yours,
