How To Remove Stickers

Do you ever have the problem of trying to remove price stickers from plates, glasses, mirrors, picture frames and other items?  Price and barcode stickers are sometimes stuck to products in weird places.  Not only are the stickers stuck in the most inconvenient places, they usually do not come off the item very well.

The bottom of one of my spray bottles had a sticker that would not come off.

I used “Goo Gone” cleaner to remove the unwanted sticker.

Just put a small amount of the cleaner on a make-up remover pad or paper towel and apply it to the sticker.

I let the cleaner sit and soak in for a few minutes before trying to rub the sticker and residue off.  Sometimes I have to apply the Goo Gone a couple of times, depending on the strength of the sticker.
Here is the same bottle with the sticker removed after using the cleaner…

The bottle says Goo Gone removes grease, gum, stickers, crayon and tape.  Luckily, I haven’t needed to remove anything besides stickers.  But I will need to keep this product in mind if I need to remove crayon from anything!

I try to remove barcode and product stickers from most items in my house.  I find that it makes the item look cleaner.  I have tried Goo Gone to successfully remove stickers on flower pots, organizing bins, cups, soap dispensers, glass from picture frames and many other items.

If you use Goo Gone on anything that will be serving food, be sure to wash the item well with soap and water after using Goo Gone.  I was not compensated in any way to write this post, I’m just sharing a product that I have purchased that has made my life easier.

What are your tips for removing stickers from items?
