Don't the manufacturers tell you what type of solvent is required ??

Need to chisel it off but wondered if anyone had used a solvent of any type

Tiger Seal is a polyurethane compound that's unlikely to easily 'dissolve' in a solvent. You're more likely to strip the paintwork by applying suck-it-and-see solvents. I've read that Zep Sticky Stuff Remover works on Tiger Seal, but I've never tried so can't guarantee the information. However, I do know from personal experience that Sticky Stuff Remover is remarkably effective on all sorts of adhesive residues.
You can get it from loads of places, Halfords, Screwfix, etc https://www.screwfix.com/p/zep-stick...ver-1ltr/8648x
Good luck.
