"Dash Cap" Adhesive ?? (74 Spider)

Hey Cats:

Got an old "dash cap" from a 76 Spider dashboard that I wanna put on my 74 
Spider dash (the 74 has the usual cracks; not bad, but visible).

I wrenched the cap off the 76 using a hair dryer and gentle force.  Now I 
have a pretty swell dash cap with black gook on the underside, quite thick 
(3/8" ?) in some places.

2 questions:

1:  best way to remove this goopy crud that was the old adhesive (so it will 
lay flat when installed)  ??  Hair dryer ain't doing jack . . .

2:  what kind of adhesive is recommended when installing the "new" dash cap 
? ?   (Obviously must have a wide temp range)

Any help is most appreciated
