Guest guest Posted February 5, 2003 Report Share Posted February 5, 2003 Hi, I don't know if this will work or not, but soak the bottles in dish soap for about 30 minutes. Then put some " GOOF OFF " on it. You can buy this product at Home Depo etc. It works at taking off stickers, so it should work. Let me know how it goes. Mecham Removing labels Hi.

Guest guest Posted February 5, 2003 Report Share Posted February 5, 2003 Heat up the label with your blow dryer and began peeling at one corner, continue to use heat as needed. Any residue can be removed with a cotton ball that has a few drops of baby oil on it. Sue Removing labels Hi. I am new to this group and I think that it is wonderful.

Guest guest Posted February 5, 2003 Report Share Posted February 5, 2003 I've found 2 products that removes labels. I buy them at a hardware store. One is called Oops. The other is called Goof-off. From the smell, I believe that both contain orange oil. On Wed, 05 Feb 2003 20:00:47 -0000 " sudz2us <sudz2us@...> " <sudz2us@...> writes: Hi. I am new to this group and I think that it is wonderful.

It will be easier to remove if it sits a while. There is also a product called Un-Do that removes labels real fast. Cant remember who carries it.

Guest guest Posted February 8, 2003 Report Share Posted February 8, 2003 Hi :0) D'limonene is a natural product and is excellent for removing labels and a great degreaser - it has a fresh citrus scent. I was doing this yesterday and found the best way was to put some on a cloth, wet the label before you try to peel it off and it should peel right off. (I realized this on the last label of course, before that I was peeling what I could off first, but it seemed to work better if I wet it first then peeled - fo figure :0)) Have a Great Day!

Guest guest Posted April 10, 2007 Report Share Posted April 10, 2007 i like to leave the labels on too. but i figure when they get old looking i will remove them. but i think you can try rubbing butter or peanut butter on the glue and it should soften it. then rub off with a clean paper towel.
