How do I get the sticky stuff off from tape?

Question

It was really strong tape and left the sticky stuff on my window.. not that glass part it's like the plastic-y part where you lift up the window... how do i get it off easily? thanks

Answer 1

Paint thinner

Answer 2

I used to work for a sign erecting company and to remove any kind of glue from metal or glass, just get some zippo fluid ( the lighter fuel) and put some on a soft cloth and rub away...the glue will come straight off...some solvents can damage glass, but the lighter fluid won't

Answer 3

Soak it with Goo Gone (Best one is the spray bottle) let it set for a few mins and with your nails or paper towel or whatever you want to use, try tearing it off. If the first time doesn't work try it again. It should work, its pretty good stuff. Good luck!

Answer 4

Yep Goo-Gone or WD-40 or cigarette lighter fluid. Almost any petroleum distillate will do the trick

Answer 5

Xylene, or Goo Gone are your best choices. Any idiot that would recommend "Gasoline" inside a home is a complete MORON. NEVER, NEVER, NEVER use volatile solutions inside a closed up house, and never gasoline.

Answer 6

WD-40. It's non-toxic to you and it won't harm the plastic like other solvents might.

Answer 7

Lighter fluid if it won't mess up the plastic

Answer 8

Goo-B-Gone
Fingernail Polish Remover
Alcohol
Denatured alcohol
Solvent
Gasoline (small part on a rag, beware of fumes).

Just to name a few products...

I wish you well..
