Removing Sticky Residue

RE: Removing Sticky Residue Post By Paige (Guest Post) (09/06/2008) I had a sticky pen (from a price sticker I pulled off). I tried the Pam suggestion: I sprayed canola oil spray on it, left it sitting for about five minutes, then put it under the faucet for a second, then wiped it off. Good riddance!

After trying every single home product like nail polish remover, rubbing alcohol and cooking spray. Nothing worked. Surprisingly I took an eraser and erased it right off. Do not use other products. They may take the polish or finish off whatever the sticker is on. The eraser worked perfectly.

Work it into the sticky spot let it sit for a few minutes and use a paper towel to wipe it off. Any oily residue can be removed with a little hot water. If you want to remove a sticker the best thing is to use your blow dryer to heat it up first, This helps to remove it more cleanly in the first place. I think that this is a GREAT SITE. There is nothing like personal experience for really good advice. Thanks to everyone!!!

Took the sticker off and the sticker residue came right off with " Goo Gone ".After washing, there was no residue from the goo gone or the sticker. I have used Goo Gone on many surfaces, it is a staple in my cleaning bucket.

Cooking oil, baby oil, spray Pam: anything like that. It will also remove labels and the residue from jars, etc. Just rub it in until the stuff comes off. There's a product call GooGone that works but oil is cheaper. Report Spam or Abuse RE: Removing Sticky Residue Post By Ginger (Guest Post) (08/12/2008) I use WD40 to remove sticky stickers.

Definitely use a all purpose cleaner afterwards followed by a few wipes with damp cloth. Thanks for the hints, someone has gotta tells these companies to find a better way to attach warning notices. Way too much work! Ciao~ (07/08/2008) By Yankee Mark RE: Removing Sticky Residue I used Mennen's deodorant to remove a sticky substance from the back of my telephone. We had used duct tape to tape a phone number to the back of the phone and when we removed it, the entire phone was a sticky mess. The deodorant removed it immediately.

(07/12/2005) By P. RE: Removing Sticker Residue That is a great idea. I must say that Goo Gone is not expensive considering a little goes such a very long way. Sometimes paying for something that lasts and lasts is a real value also. By the way, the product also works great if you happen to have a little person who has gum in their hair! (07/12/2005) By Patti RE: Removing Sticker Residue Thanks so much for the tip. I have some containers that came with chicken salad or potato salad in them originally. I love to use them for storing leftovers in, however, I have never been able to completely get the stickers and the sticky off. You can bet I will be trying this one out. Thanks again.

(12/28/2006) By Sol RE: Removing Sticker Residue I removed a "caution, hot surface" sticker that was meant to stay on the top of my new stainless steel toaster oven for its lifespan. I tried most of the things I found on this site, but for this stubborn residue that was designed to endure heat, I used peppermint oil (didn't have eucalyptus). Seeing that this left a strange haze, I put hot water on a rag to remove any traces of peppermint oil, wiped the surface dry and then polished it w/ Noxon metal cleaner.
