I took some stickers off mine after I got it. They were the same sort of gel things as this.
If you get them hotter, the glue comes off with the stickers rather than leaving a sticky mess. It doesn't damage the paint.
It will still leave a little outline, but I cleaned mine off with just normal Autoglym bike cleaner spray and a cloth, it was quite easy.
I would probably be careful with white spirit as it is a paint thinner and might damage the paint.

Removes HG stickers?
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.
