Not too toxic. My teenager tried to commit suicide by drinking an economy size GooGone a couple years ago. It gave him a really bad case of diarrhea, but thats all. He was hospitalized in the psyche ward for a while though. As a BTW, he did get the help he needed and is doing much better now :)
 
To get back on topic, I've had great success soaking the marquee paper with GooGone. Also, I've had success using a hair drier to warm up the paper and it comes off fairly easily.
