I'd start with soapy water, isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol, and WD-40 since those are generally not harmful to rubber.

A lot of solvents can damage gum rubber, so if you need to resort to something else, read the label carefully. Goof-Off works great on a lot of stuff, but the FAQ on their web site specifically mentions that it can damage natural materials including rubber.

Those are great suggestions.

Word of advice- stay away from spray cleaners like Fantastic and others, they'll break down the rubber over time and you'll be drumming on a flaky mess.

goo-gone works quite well. However, be careful beacuse I'm not sure what kind of pad you have so don't take this information to the bank.
