Problem here. The underside of the lid of a ungazed kyuso I bought had a store sticker on it. I pulled it off and alot of the adhesive stuck to the unglazed surface.
It still feels sticky. Any ideas on how to remove it without damaging the surface will be appreciated.
Yeah, these things work great: http://www.mrclean.com/en_US/products/eraser.shtml
Make sure to wet the pad and wring it well first, and rub the afflicted area gently. Depending on the nature of the adhesive, I might try alternating rubbing with the pad and with my fingers.

Goo-Gone works really well to remove traces of sticky adhesive. The active ingredient in Goo-Gone is lemon oil (often used as a wood polish); so if you have any lemon oil in the house, you can use it as well.
Be sure to wash the item thoroughly afterwards if you use either of these, however, since lemon oil is unsafe (toxic) to ingest.
