After you scrape out to old foam/goo, remove the remaining adhesve with fingernail polish. be sure to take your time doing this and let all the fingernail polish evaporate before applying the new foam.

Goo-Gone may work as well.

Acetone is the same stuff as finger nail polish remover. That is what I have used. Does take off some of the black paint so be careful with it.
