Can anyone tell me how to get stickers off of a wooden door?

Question

Some friends are moving, and their teen had put radio station stickers on his bedroom door; now they're preparing the house for sale, and need to get the stickers off of the door. Does anyone know of the easiest way to do this, and/or the best product(s) to buy to help remove these? (They're already assuming they'll have to repaint the door.) Thanks to everyone who has feedback for this question.

Answer 1

Umm, there's this stuff that's called Goo-Gone. It takes off sticker gunk and much more!!! lol, I sound like a dork. But it really works and it smells like oranges.

Answer 2

WD-40 is good,
but GooGone or plain ol' lighter fluid is better.
Soak the sticker with the solvent and gently scrape it off with a razor blade, I had to do it many times when I managed an apartment complex.
Adding a heat source like a hair dryer will speed up the process.

Answer 3

goo gone or if you don't have enough money for that. vinegar water with 1/2 cup of vinegar to a 1/2 gallon of warm water. If that doesn't work try 1/4 cup fabric softener in 1/2 gallon of water.

Answer 4

Try a hairdryer. I've heard that if you heat the glue, it'll come off easier. Same theory for removing wallpaper, except there has to be some chemicals for that.

Answer 5

Answer 6

rubbing alcohol, put it on a cotton ball and get the stickers wet, they should get gummy and you can work them off. works on windows and car paint too..
