      I like to find an old toothbrush, coat it in midge lodge and let the midge lodge dry. Break the bristles apart so it’s hard . Then use an old toothpaste and let it sit with some baking soda so it’s a paste goop. The. Use the toothbrush to scrub away

    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.

    Hello YT Mom!!!
    Great tips! I have a tip to share with y’all ~ Hand Sanitizer works to take off sticky residue. Just rub into like you would goo gone and clean off. It also works on some stains to clean fabrics. I have a friend that has a auto body shop and he uses it to get gunk off cars…I have found it is a hit or miss with fabrics it depends on the stain.

    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 😅

      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.

    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 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.

    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!

    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.

    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.

    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.

      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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    Would you happen to know how to remove the Cascade Premium label from the container. I’ve tried everything and nothing works 😑

      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.

      Never tried this; but try using a sharpie to mark over the ink, then a dry erase marker, then wipe it off 🤷🤷.

    Alcohol and acetone. Acetone will remove the paint labels. Alcohol removes sticky residue.

    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.

    Hand sanitizer works on some stickers & labels. Do not use on plastics.
