I just bought a new house and had new mirrors installed in the bathrooms! The manufacturer stuck a sticker on each mirror and when i tried to peel it off it left the sticky part of the sticker and some of the white paper on the mirror! I can not get it off! I have tried rubbing alcohol, a razor blade to scrape it, and numerous cleaners! Any magic tricks out there for this? Please help!

Go to any store and buy Goo-Gone. It's the best way to remove the glue left behind from stickers and tape etc. You'll have to wash your mirrors with a cleaning agent afterwards and you should be good to go.

Use "WD 40 spray lubricant" or any houshold oil (if you have no motor oil or WD 40 etc., try PAM cooking spray or veggie oil etc. It is slower, but still works) to remove the adhesive and any bits of sticky paper (works well with old rag but you can use a paper towel) then use window cleaner, ammonia or a mix of cidar vinegar & water to remove the streaky oil smudges.

very carefully use a blow dryer that you would use for your hair to slowly heat the label then try to use the razor blade again. heating most labels and tape softens the glue on the back so it is easier to remove. be care full not to overheat the mirror
be patient this should work !

Here is the solution...
1. put dishwater soap in the needed area
2. get an unused toothbrush and scrub it.
3. then put dishwater soaps again
4. get a loopah (the one you use in the shower) and scrub the
spotted are with it.
5. lastly get your blowdryer and blowdry that specific are,
however it still must be wet.

goo-gone works great on all sticky stuff if you have a new house you will be finding sticky stuff for months to come, it will work on most surface without harming it (read the label before you use it on different surfaces)

TRY NAIL POLISH REMOVER!
OR USE TAPE AND TRY TO STICK IT TO THE LEFT OVER STICKER!

I have heard that mayonnaise works but haven't tried it myself.
