Try the regular pharmacy version first, but if that doesn't work move to the higher percentage.
I have read that the ingredient in denatured alcohol that makes it undrinkable can react with vinyl, so unless you can disprove that, then stay away from that.
Also before you go straight alcohol, try it on the runout and make sure it doesn't screw up the vinyl somehow. Although from your description, you have little to lose.

I remember in my organic chemistry class that "like dissolves like". If the adhesive is petroleum based, then you will need a petroleum base detergent to dissolve it. Problem is, vinyl is also petroleum base so too strong a detergent will damage the vinyl. But since the adhesive has already made the vinyl unplayable, you might as well try a oil based detergent or a very fine refined mineral oil. I'm guessing the VPI detergent is water based which is why it's not working.
HAven't some people had success using insane things like GooGone? I have never tried it, but if it's a "clean it or make it into a bowl" situation, why not?
Goo Gone will kill the vinyl.
Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups.
Goo Gone is derived from orange peels.
