How to remove self-adhesive labels

Self-adhesive labels are a way for us to identify items. For example, they can be seen on bottles, boxes, and books. Although it has many conveniences, we often encounter difficulties when we need to remove it - the sticker remains on the surface of the item and is very difficult to clean. Then what should be done? Today, this article will introduce you to the best way to remove self-adhesive labels.

 

Method 1: Use warm water and soap

 

This is the most basic cleaning method. First, drop some soap on the item where the sticker is located, add an appropriate amount of warm water, and then wipe it gently with a brush or fiber cloth until the sticker residue completely disappears. It should be noted that if the sticker is in a particularly stubborn state, you can scrub harder, but at the same time, be careful not to scratch the surface of the item.

 

Method 2: Use alcohol or vinegar

 

If the first method fails to remove the adhesive residue, you can try using alcohol or vinegar. Pour a small amount of alcohol or vinegar onto a brush or fiber cloth and gently wipe the surface of the item. This method is especially suitable for removing adhesive residue on metal, glass and other materials.

 

Method 3: Use an eraser

 

If you need to clean a small area of adhesive residue, you can choose to use an eraser. Place the eraser on the location of the sticker and wipe it back and forth until the sticker residue is completely gone.

 

Method 4: Use cooking oil


If none of the above three methods can remove the adhesive residue, you can try using some cooking oil to remove it. Pour a small amount of cooking oil on the location of the sticker, heat it slightly, and then scrub gently with a brush or fiber cloth. This method is particularly useful for removing adhesive residue from plastic and paper items.

 

Method 5: Use special cleaning agents

 

If you feel that none of the above methods can remove the adhesive residue, you can choose to use a specialized cleaner. There are many types of cleaners available on the market, such as "glue remover cleaners" and so on. When using these cleaners, you should follow the product instructions to ensure cleaning effectiveness and safety.

 

In short, the above five methods are the best common methods for removing self-adhesive labels, and you can choose according to your needs. However, during any cleaning process, pay attention to the environment and materials in which the items are located, and take appropriate methods and measures to ensure that no damage is caused to the items. At the same time, when handling stickers, you must also pay attention to environmental protection and try to use environmentally friendly cleaning agents and methods.
