Thank you so very much. The dish soap and vinegar soaking, as well as the baking soda and cooking oil to take off the stickiness work extremely well as described!
1 tsp baking soda, 1 tsp cooking oil, any kind. Make a paste, apply this paste to glue, let sit for 15-20 minutes, rinse. If there is any residue glue, a scouring pad will take care of that.
THANK YOU for these tips. The hot water inside and out, and the SOS pad trick for getting the adhesive residue off just changed my life. I completely cleaned off 6 bottles in 20 minutes.
Hey! The BEST and EASIEST way is hot water soak/pull/scrape but the left over glue can be removed with *bar keepers friend* cooktop cleaner and a green scrub daddy or any mildly abrasive side sponge! No wait time, no mess, just sparkling glass! It even removed the expiration date laser etch, I just discovered this method after watching your video and seeing what I had in the cabinet 😅
I discontinued using BKF. Baking soda not harmful . Just found this: BKF contains linear sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate is a toxic substance and is on the hazardous list, according to New Jersey Department of Health and Senior Services. It cleans well, but if accidentally ingested, Bar Keepers Friend can be dangerous for bar cleaning.
The torch idea is brilliant! I was able to easily peel the plastic off. I soaked the bottle in alcohol and VOILA! The glue wiped off easily. Thank you!
I came by to learn some tips to clean the stickiness and dont have any tips to add. But just wanna share. I tried to buy same types of sauce/food so I have a few same glass jars to organize my spices. Turn out just great!
I made lamps out of those blue gin bottles. Perfect size for a side lamp in my guest room. G&T is lovely. I'm a Tanqueray fan. It is the best!! IMHO Thank you for your information in this video. I'll see what your other crafts are like! 😊
Thank you so much. I tried your method of vinegar, hot water and dish soap and it worked very well. For the sticky stubborn glue I used white spirits and a sponge and it just walked off, beautiful shine on the bottles too
Hey Ma'am, I just wanna thank you for all of your ideas and Craft lessons, I enjoy watching and learning from you, I am a crafter as well. God Bless you.
The white vinegar and dawn dish soap worked great. A little olive oil and a scrub with the SOS pad took the labels off my crown royal bottles. They will dry tonight, and then I will wipe them down with alcohol tomorrow before painting them to be pumpkins. I've already watched your video on painting glass and making stems. Thanks much.
Really great ideas...thank you for share...AND...I love the dog...and because you are holding the dog with your hand...it look like this guy is praying...TANKS YOUX!!!
Hi, just subscribed from the upcycle group. I see other videos ive been wanting to know about. I’m really diy. Tried making my own chalk paint. New to crafting. Been sewing for 55 years.
I put eucalyptus and lemon essential oils in a spray bottle with water. My son had taped up his car window with a bunch of gorilla glue tape because It came off it’s roller. It stayed that way for a few months before the window was fixed. I had previously used the technique on smaller items, but that window was something to be reckoned with as it was covered in dried up gorilla glue adhesive. I should mention that I also used a couple of the dollar tree razor scrapers that come in a four pack. Everything came off pretty easily considering the mess. My neighbor from across the street saw me scraping the window and came over with a big spray bottle of goo gone. I graciously thanked him, and told him I also had a big spray bottle of GG, but that the Eucalyptus and lemon oils worked faster and easier. Hope this helps someone who might need to take a bunch of built up glue off a window or a jar. Try it it works good. I put about 30 drops in a 16 oz bottle.
I do just like Sinatra said, soak enough bakinsoda& any cooking oil,making a paste of it apply on the glue keep it on for 2 hours,wipe it off with an old towel or rag, no hard scraping
The top adhesive remove on the market is "Goof Off". It includes several solvents including Acetone and Xylene. You must use nitrile gloves while working with Goof Off. On the extreme side of things, I've removed carpet from a concrete floor and used Goof Off to remove the thick, hard carpet glue off a concrete floor. Goof Off is undoubtedly the best adhesive remover ever. However, it suffers from one minor drawback: it evaporates rather quickly. To get around this, apply Goof Off to a cotton rag/towel and wrap it around the glass jar/bottle that you're using it on. Place the glass jar in a resealable container to prevent the Goof Off from evaporating. After a few minutes, the adhesive will be able to wipe away from the jar with ease. To remove carpet glu off concrete, apply Goof Off (sold in drums at Home Depot in USA) directly over the carpet glu on the concrete floor and quickly apply plastic painter's cloth over the Goof Off treated area (use a plastic painter's cloth with a high MIL rating - high MIL means the plastic drop cloth is thicker). Use semi-heavy objects to weigh down the painter's cloth. This will prevent the Goof Off from evaporating. After 15 - 20 minutes, the thick, hard, carpet glue can be removed with a large floor scraper. The carpet softened glu will come off the floor as if you were removing peanut butter off the flat floor with a paint scraper. This method is used commercially by professional flooring crews. Hope this helped others out. Sincerely, Jacob P. S. - Always use chemicals over a cheap layer of kitty litter. The kitty litter will absorb harmful chemicals, solvents, fuels, oils and other liquids and allow you to dispose of them in an environmentally safe way. Kitty litter is also the preferred method of cleaning up chemical spills on the floor/concrete. Use an outdoor broom to sweep up the chemical absorbed clumps of kitty litter and dispose of it in the trash. Don't spray chemicals like brake cleaner and WD-40 down your sink drain system.
I use the same technique of boiling water and vinegar soak for a few hours, and then I use those metal brushes you find in the paint department to scrape off the paper label along with the glue. Works really well. I used to use acetone, but got tired of the smell.
Coconut oil works better than vegetable oil for sticky residue because it clings to the surface and doesn't run off. Smear the adhesive with coconut oil and let it sit for 24 - 48 hours (up to a week for stubborn stuff). Wipe off with paper towel and then wash with soap and water. Peanut butter needs time to work as well. Just have patience.
I've been using my reverse osmosis water filter to store clean drinking water. The storage looks so much better in bare glass bottles but the labels are a pain to remove. Thanks for the tips!
I know rubbing alcohol will take off the expiration date writing but not sure about all paint. Also I use a steel wire brush and dawn dish soap to scrub off labels
The Pink Stiff cleaning spray is brilliant and doesn’t cloud the plastic! Remove the label, spray residue of glue with The Pink stuff and it’s clean in seconds!
The bet thing I have EVER going to remove adhesive residue is citrus essential oil. I smear a little on and the acidity of the citrus eats the adhesive off. It literally wipes clean on a minute or less.
Citrus oil isn't acidic. It is an essential oil from the skin of the fruit not the acidic juices. Citrus oil is a solvent like Goof Off, lighter fluid and Varsol. It's just a naturally sourced one.
I’ve had success using the hot water to soak and then vegetable oil and coffee grounds to scrub the adhesive residue off. Some jars are a lot tougher though.
The one and only easy way is to soak the jars hot in water Peel off the labels Then gently rub in a paste of bread soda and oil, and it works every time Easy peasy No need for gloves I just did all my favourite jars It’s a game changer
Try an adhesive remover called "Remoce" by "Smith & Nephew".. It s essentially a health care product for removing bandage adhesive and Band-Aids without pulling the hair. Works very well and it is safe on skin too.
If the label won't come off cleanly, get what you can off by hand. Then, boil the bottle in a pan of water with a dishwasher tablet, leave it in the water overnight and the next morning scrape it with a wire pad. Dishwasher tablets also work very well for old bottles that have been outside for a long time.
Now I know not to use peanut butter to remove labels AT ALL, that I haven't really thought of since watching this video! Lol I did the hot water inside and out and butter-knife scrape just now. Will try the SOS pad trick soon, and the other suggestions made by other commenters here. Wish I have a heat gun!
What about those plastic sticky labels on Yankee Candle large jar candles? I want to use them to store craft supplies. Buttons, beads, jewelry, etc. No heat gun, hot, hot hair dryer?
Great video. I've never thought to try SOS pad. Usually I soak in hot water, then try a variety of chemicals lol. Seems WD40 has lost its reliability these days, just makes a mess. I try lighter fluid, nail polish remover, rubbing alcohol...depending on the glue, one of these usually work for the residue. But I found that nail polish thinner works good on most but it's pricey. I'm watching videos to find other ways, or if mineral spirits, paint thinner, or turpentine is a go-to before I buy anything. I've no heat gun, and thanks for letting me know my hair dryer won't work so I don't bother. I think my next label is getting the SOS treatment! thanks....I love your dog so cute! Subscribed!
I have a beautiful bottle that was Seagram's Lime twisted gin, although I think all Seagram's bottles have the same basketweave pattern. Anyway, I was wondering if you had ever up-cycled one, or if you would? I'm a copy cat crafter, not a creator, so I"m looking for ideas.
WD40 also works well to get the extra clue off. Still struggling with how to get the printing off of frosted glass such as the Absolut Citron bottles. Thoughts?
The prints on that gin bottle are probably heat annealed into the glass at the bottle factory. I've seen spaghetti sauce jars made like that with prints. They add it to the glass while it's still almost red hot. Some chain restaurants have their logo made into their drinking glasses that way.
I have a couple of wine bottles and yogurt glass jars (certain brand) that I have tried ALL these methods plus Goo Gone, acetone, and alcohol. Nothing seems to get the labels/glue residue off 😵💫
Try 100% acetone (nail polish remover) on the ?paint? of the lovely blue bottle. It may take a couple of tries, some soaking with acetone on a paper towel, or some elbow grease. I would like to know if this works in this case. Acetone and sometimes isopropyl alcohol will remove the black batch & date lettering from glass & plastic.
Before trying these great tips, soak in cold water (hot water makes glue sticky). If it's a new item, the sticker should slide right off. I typically soak for a couple of hours but I'm sure less time will work.
@@OurUpcycledLife I just saw some videos that put vinegar and salt with little water, I am working in a liquor store now, I have too many bottles and glasses. I am going to search more information.
Use a hair dryer while slowly peeling off the label. Goo Gone or Zippo Lighter Fluid works great to remove any left over adhesive with a cotton cloth or paper towel.
I liked the summary at the end (90% strategy). Comment - I am going to use Scrub Daddy to get stubborn residues off (v/s butter knife). Will update this comment based on my experiences.
A really effortless way to perfectly remove all traces of the label glue is to use petroleum spirit, as in the liquid petrol lighter fuel available from most newsagent or DIY hardware stores.
Don’t use any harsh products or hot guns …soak your labels off in just hot soapy water then dry bottle around label glue ..smear baby oil over the sticky residue and rub gently with cotton make up remover pads …gently scrape the bottle where some glue remains then wipe back over with the cotton pad again …all the glue comes off easy with no effort plus you have lovely soft hands at the same time …I also use baby oil to remove sticky plaster glue once a wound has heeled ..

Hi I'm a chemist. Acetone eats nitrile gloves just so you know.
Thank you 😊

So many ways that work great! Thanks for sharing
Best way ever. I do too but add baking soda. Even takes off the clear labels that look baked on. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Acetone also works well for removing paint from glass.
Mix a little cooking oil with the acetone, it does 2 things one , it keeps the acetone from evaporating and two it helps with the smell.
Brass wire brush spinning from a dremel or drill gets the silk screen / heat transfer labels off without damaging the glass
I’m going to use your tips for a mirror I think! Thank you, you are so sweet! I loved the video!

I have a beautiful bottle that was Seagram's Lime twisted gin, although I think all Seagram's bottles have the same basketweave pattern. Anyway, I was wondering if you had ever up-cycled one, or if you would? I'm a copy cat crafter, not a creator, so I"m looking for ideas.
I don’t think I have!
Would this work on years old alcohol bottles as well?
Im sure it would!
WD40 also works well to get the extra clue off. Still struggling with how to get the printing off of frosted glass such as the Absolut Citron bottles. Thoughts?
Great Tip thanks for sharing
What colour are the shelves behind you
They are Behr poached pear! One of my favourites
The prints on that gin bottle are probably heat annealed into the glass at the bottle factory. I've seen spaghetti sauce jars made like that with prints. They add it to the glass while it's still almost red hot. Some chain restaurants have their logo made into their drinking glasses that way.
Yes and will not come off!
I always rub in the oil, then sprinkle regular table salt over it. Let it sit about 15 minutes & rub it in & wash it off. 🤗
Great tip!

Use a hair dryer while slowly peeling off the label.
Goo Gone or Zippo Lighter Fluid works great to remove any left over adhesive with a cotton cloth or paper towel.

I haven't been able to get them off either!! I have tried everything...Thank you for watching ! 🤗 Happy Holidays
Use rubbing alcohol or hand sanitizer!
Rubbing alcohol works for some ink dates but not all.
Never tried this; but try using a sharpie to mark over the ink, then a dry erase marker, then wipe it off 🤷🤷.
Thanks

I soaked the bottle in hot water for 10 minutes and used a mr clean to get the stickiness off!
Great tip
Ajax works too.

Try acetone,that might do it!!
