minus-squareiii@mander.xyzlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up19·2 days agoBought a wastebin. It had a large sticker with the price and barcode on it. Now there’s this dirty sticker glue residue that I can’t get off. Grrr

minus-squareLadyButterfly she/her@piefed.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·2 days agoOh that’s annoying, it’s so hard to get off. Have you tried baking soda and white vinegar? They’re pretty solid natural cleaners
minus-squareLvxferre [he/him]@mander.xyzlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·2 days agoI use something similar - baking soda with veg oil, until it becomes a paste. Apply, wait 2~3 min, rinse.

It’s worked for me with everything up until it comes to removing adhesive that’s been sitting around since 1985 or whatever.

naphtha is even better.
