Removing 'Sticker' Residue

| Any suggestion on getting rid of "sticker" residue. We are building and our jacuzzi tub had several stickers and I can't get the glue off. I don't want to scratch the surface. |

| Remove sticker residue with spray product called De-Solv-it. It is made by Orange-Sol Household Products. There's nothing better!!! About $5 for 12 oz. I've bought it at Rite-Aid and at K-Mart. (DO NOT confuse it with Goof-Off or the like...it's not the same stuff.) |

| Occasionally heat will do it. Try a hair dryer perhaps before spending. |

| Try peanut butter or vegetable oil - both soak in under the sticker and it dissolves. |

Goo gone does it for me also!
Can be bought almost anywhere that sells household products. |

| Rubbing alcohol often works well to remove sticker residue too. |

| DeSolveit is good, there's a general cleaner called Orange Lightning that works great and MaryEllen Pinkham suggests WD40. Most any degreaser should work and the big secret is to let it soak in and be absorbed to work. To make it a little easier, a plastic putty knife will help scrape the bulk off nicely onced soaked. |

| After many suggestions of trying Goo Gone, I purchased some and it is amazing - worked like a gem. Have used it many times - another use we had purchase 138 primed spindles for our new stairway and when they arrived they had placed individual price stickers on each spindle, the painter started to remove them and called and said it will take me hours to get these off and they are leaving residue and we can't paint them. Needless to say, I was not about to pay a painter $65.00 an hour to remove stickers - so I removed 138 stickers with the help of Goo Gone - didn't damage the primed surface and made the job alot easier. |
