Try Goo Gone in the spray bottle
You can also try warm vinegar water
that has been put in a spray bottle
Mix more vinegar than water together
Try to score the decal gently with
a exactor blade before use the Goo
Gone or especially the vinegar water
Good luck

Scrape with old credit card and see if it will remove the actual decal. I sometimes use cards to scrape delicate surfaces to keep from scratching. Maybe try nail polish remover or alcohol for the adhesive? You could also try acetone from the hardware store. (Be sure to follow the label, this stuff has major fumes.) Be sure to test in a hidden spot first, just in case. Post your results, I’m curious. Good luck!

if its a ceramic tile it probally is not a decal. most tiles are painted with a design and then fired in a kiln. but you can try goof off,acetone, paint thinner, finger nail polish remover.
