Why is Label Glue so Sticky?

RE: Why is Label Glue so Sticky? By oredwine1933 (Guest Post) A friend said she used fabric softener with steam to remove wallpaper. Soaked it first to remove. The best remover is Goo-Gone,it always works. When I need to solve a problem, my thought is what do I have on hand at the time. Whichever I have is what I try first. Saves time, gas and a trip to the store again. Posted on 12/11/2008 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Why is Label Glue so Sticky? By bestbiddy (6) Contact Lighter fluid works every time.

By Lelly (Guest Post) Thanks so much to you all for your advice - have asked a friend in the States to post me a container of Goo B Gone (the real thing, no imitations!).

I have a spray can of Motsenblock's Lift Off which I have used for years. The salespeople in the store can tell you if they have it are not. Just ask for Gum and Adhesive Remover. Good Luck.

By Deeli (1578) Profile Contact I am fairly certain you could find Goo Gone in most hardware stores and some large grocery stores carry it ... If you can't find it in Australia try Amazon.com or even eBay :-) Oh, and there are 'knock off' brands so try to find the original Goo Gone ... It's orange in color and has a citrus smell ... Hope this helps ... Posted on 12/10/2008 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Why is Label Glue so Sticky? By Lelly (Guest Post) Can anyone tell me if Goo B Gone is available in Australia and if so where from?

By Anonymous (106) Profile Contact My guess is that the manufacturers that make the product that is in the jar want the label to stay on as long as possible to advertise their product. In their eyes, the longer the label is on, the more people will see the name and contents of what is in the jar. Just a guess............

Stick it in the dishwasher, the prolonged exposure to the hot water and soap takes off a lot of glue, not always all of it. I sometimes soak the item in hot water from the coffee pot. There is the peanut butter thing, lighter fluid, and then of course Goo B Gone, or Goof Off that you can buy just about anywhere. One of them has a strong smell, and the other doesn't, I don't remember which is which. I think it's the Goof Off that doesn't smell so bad. Good luck! Posted on 12/09/2008 | Report Spam or Abuse
