Just use the label itself by touching the stickyness with the sticky side and pulling up repeatedly. Scotch tape used the same way will work.

Yes, there is a product out there. You'll find it in the hardware store. It is a petroleum based product and extremely flammable. So if you smoke, be careful. "Goo Gone" is the name of the product. Use it before washing the jeans and use it sparingly. It works on any of the modern glues. (07/29/2009)

Try using oil from the kitchen. It should "melt" away the stickiness. (07/29/2009)

We use Lighter Fluid for removing labels from books and picture frames, test in a hidden spot first but this stuff really works. (07/31/2009)

I use WD-40. Works well and will not stain. (07/31/2009)
