I have a white porcelain bathtub with a bunch of pink butterfly decals on the sides (rather than the bottom!). I can see where they were probably very cute once upon a time, but now they look pretty grungy (no matter how much I scrub) and really need to go. I don't know whether I should use WD-40, Goof-Off, or something else. I don't want to end up with a dangerously slick tub. Another big concern is that I will be working in a small, enclosed space with no ventilation. What can I safely use that will effectively remove these?
Serious answers appreciated. Thanks!

TBR's resident homo-fixer-upper, Fred, suggests a strong, well placed stream of fresh piss to remove those stubborn stickers.

you want these to remove old bathtub decals
Rags, white vinegar, a wooden or plastic scraper, mineral oil and liquid dish detergent.
Soak a face cloth in mineral spirits. It is easiest to soak the same number of cloths as decals to be removed. Leave to soak for some time.Scrape off the decals using a kitchen spatula. The decals should come off easily. Clean the bath area. The bath will look like new again.
