I usually use WD-40; spray it on, let it sit, peel the label off, wipe any residue with a paper towel, then wash them all in soapy water. Looks like more steps than it is. I have even used it to successfully remove sticker residue inside pricey leather shoes with no ill aftereffects. Good luck!

I use a hair dryer to remove sticky labels, it usually leaves no residue.

RE: Removing Label Residue On Bottles
Hi, I wanted to share that I use a vegetable spray (Like PAM or MAZOLA or any Store Brand ) to remove the labels and sticky residue that is left. Just 'spritz' the label (mush around with your finger if you want... just keep the label wet) Let sit about 10 min.
Scrap off the paper label. Then 'spritz' again, let sit another few minutes, when wipe clean. I've used this method many times on many things and it's much easier then the scraping. I have tried GOO GONE in the past. but it never seemed to work for me. :( And the PAM spray is much cheaper and usually in the cabinet.

RE: Removing Label Residue On Bottles
I have had luck with using your finger nail and loosen the short end of the label a bit all the way down until you can get a little bit of a grip on it. You want it where it pulls up clean without leaving paper or traces of residue. Really slowly pull the label off. If you do it too fast it will leave more of the sticky stuff behind. (Sorry...harder to describe than I thought) Then if there are a few bits of sticky residue I have use cooking oil on a cotton ball.
Sometimes on jars with hard to remove labels I fill the inside of the jar with hot water to loosen the glue. Sometimes it loosens the glue easily, sometimes it makes it stickier.

A great product called Goo Gone works like a charm! You can find it at Walmart and just recenlty I fould it at the Dollar Tree. It has a nice smell as well. It even takes off old tape and all kinds of sticky stuff. Good luck!
