Removing Label Residue On Bottles

Try BBQ cleaner. Spray on, leave for about 5-10 minutes (depends on how sticky residue is), then wash off with steel wool kitchen scourer. Guaranteed effortless and effective!

Mix up some Dawn dish wash liquid and rubbing alcohol in equal parts. Use a small brush or cotton ball to saturate the area of goo and rub well. It should all come off. Good luck

Use lighter fluid or that stuff you put on charcoal to start it.

Put some cooking oil on the label and leave it over night. If any of the label is still attached reapply the oil.

I always use a little cooking oil It works great for gum in the hair too. Just put a dab on the the label and keep rubbing until it is gone.

You can try scraping off what you can with your fingernail, then using fingernail polish remover. Or, another trick I have learned is to use lighter fluid. Again, scrape off what you can, then rub the area with a cotton ball soaked in lighter fluid. Comes right off!

I have lots of empty medicine bottles. I like to use them for all kinds of things like salad dressing in a lunch box, toothpick holder for purse, etc. The one problem I have is getting all the sticky stuff off of the bottle after I remove the label.
