Can anybody point me in the right direction for a product to help remove the glue left from removing bump strips on a Corsa?

Previously tried Auto Glym Glue & Tar remover but i ended up using nearly a whole bottle on a 10cm section

Cheers

Unlikely you'll have it to hand, but panel degreaser works very well. I think you can buy it from Halfords. Bug and tar remover works well too, I think it's pretty similar stuff to the degreaser.
