Stickers??

Question

You know when you peel a sticker off, the white stuff leftover? Is there any regular household item that will remove this? It is on a bed frame. PLEASE help!!!

Answer 1

You can soak it thoroughly with water, then scrub at it with a green scratchy pad for cleaning dishes. It will eventually come off with a lot of scrubbing. If you don't want to go to all the work, buy "Goo Gone" in the cleaning aisle of most stores. It works like magic and has a nice citrusy smell. I know you wanted a regular household item, though. So...elbow grease?

Answer 2

I used to work in a book store and we needed to remove stickers without ruining the books. We first used a hair dryer on the sticker before trying to remove the stickers, it melts the glue and softens it for when you try to peel it off, then we used lighter fluid to remove any reamaining residue (if there was any). It is cheap and works like magic!!

Answer 3

To remove stickers or the adhesive left behind rub Listerine onto the area with a cotton ball.

Hope this helps.

Answer 4

Be very careful not to get it on anything else. but a dab of fingernail polish remover on a piece of cloth. Lightly rub the white sticker stuff and it should disappear.

Answer 5

Try softening the dried up glue with baby oil, eucalyptus oil or citrus spray. To give the glue time to soften, apply the oil, then wrap in plastic wrap, and half an hour later it should be soft enough to rub off. Don't use this on painted or varnished surfaces though as it can soften/remove paint as well.
Fine for laminates, most plastics, enamaled, or metal surfaces.

Answer 6

If it is not a wood bedframe, I would use Goo Gone. Awesome stuff! It will also take the melted bread bag off of your toaster, in case your curious! If it is wood, test the Goo Gone in an inconspicuous area first, I think it may soak into the wood.

Answer 7

Pour some apple cider vinegar on a clean cloth & saturate the spot, then rub the sticky stuff off. Repeat if necessary.

Answer 8

Try Goo Gone. It is made with citrus peel and has worked great for me. Apply it according to the directions. I have used it on metal, plastic, glass and finished wood. It is non abrasive too.

Answer 9

ok well the thing that will get it off is you need to take a rag and put water on it and then just let the rag sit there and eventually it will start to crumble into little pieces and it will peel off

Good Luck
