I’ve used this trick to get old price stickers off my VHS cases (plastic ones, not cardboard), and to remove branded stickers off glass spice jars I want to reuse and relabel. Always works like a charm after letting it sit for a while.

Why not just use some oil instead of oil mixed with other stuff?
If you can manage to thicken it so that it stays in place, I see no issue. Just with peanut butter and mayonnaise, it’s really easy to spread it over the adhesive without it spreading to where you don’t need it and it staying in place.
Maybe a paper towel might work, but I’d still worry about preventing it from spreading elsewhere instead of staying place personally.
This is a great use-case for Cotton pads.
