I know of no known solvent that will not cause you to have to repair an oil finish. The glue used is most likely a sticky mess and it will take a solvent (turpentine, mineral spirits,acetone...) or an abrasive substance of some kind to remove the glue residue. Murphy's Soap has been used but it too leaves a residue of its own that will need touch up. A true Oil finish will only need a couple of drops to bring the damaged area back to spec.....unless the Oil Finish has waxes added to it and the pores of the wood are fully filled. In that case, I recommend Timberluxe for patching in your repair. If you run into difficulty, I am available to help you. Information is free at my shop.
