You need to lift a corner either using your finger nail or a steel scraper and then gently peel the sticker off 've used a steel scraper and have easily removed stickers off a board without without damaging the board or paint,just got to be careful when doing it.

a light and careful application of some heat to the area (hair dryer worked best for me) will also help soften any glue. Best stuff I have found for removing and glue residue is Septone Wax and Grease Remover, I have used this on a few epoxy boards with no issue and seen it used on many boards.
