I have always used Ronsonal lighter fluid (yellow container) to remove sticky goo when removing a price label. Does this work as well?

Sorry, I have never used Ronsonal fluid. My Wife actually likes the Zippo lighter fluid, cleaning sticky goo from labels and that sort of stuff is all she uses it for and she seems to be happy with it. Up to you to take a chance.

I heated the label with a hairdryer, then peeled it off cleanly. I don't know if heating the residue will come off if heated with a hairdryer.

I don't recall but not surprised. Goo gone works awesome on adhesive residue as well as a good soak in dawn and water.

Yes, Just peel off slowly! And if you have any sticky stuff left on the table from it just use Goo Gone! I hope you meant to take them off your table!

After I removed the large label, I used duct tape on the sticky part. I just pressed the duct tape against the sticky part and after I removed it the sticky stuff came off with the duct tape without leaving any residue or scratches.

Yes, comes off easy with no residue. By the way, cigarette lighter fluid (NOT BBQ fluid) will remove sticker residue from paper or anything else without damage

Do not get the area wet. If it is wet, let it dry out. Put 2 or 3 drops of lighter fluid over the sticky label area - rub the area gently with your finger tip - wipe away with a paper towel. I use this on all plastics, glass, metal, etc. as it will not scratch or harm the item. I never have a need to use anything else. Good luck!

Any petroleum-based solvent, such as lighter fluid (aka: naphtha) will dissolve most label glues, then a simple wash with a dish detergent will rid the item of the solvent.

refillable flint style lighters usually use naphtha based fluids, where charcoal fluids are methanol or alcohol based, which may work fine or have unintended consequences. Ronsonol fluid is usually around $2.00 dollars for 5 ounces. Zippo fluid is fine as well and is around the same cost.

Just guessing it would work. In my experience goo-gone or Goof-off works at least as well and is cheaper.

In general, I have found the two products work much the same, however, I always use the liquid bottled kind for removing grease stains in laundry - the spray gel doesn't work at all for this purpose.

I find the Goof Off to be too harsh. Goo Gone is the best for this! Good luck!

Zippo Lighter fluid. You don't have to use the Zippo brand fluid though. I use Ronsonol and it works great.

I don't know for certain, so whatever you do, proceed with some caution. I would think that you could separate 2 items that have been stuck together with GOOP because it is not a permanent type of adhesive (like an epoxy, or heavy body glue). GOOP is a lot like rubber cement, but a little stronger. Try separating the 2 items by gently working them back and forth to try and see if the bond breaks or gets looser. If you can get a knife or blade to slice thru the GOOP bond, that would also probably work. Good luck!

I used a product called Goo off. You can use alittle gasoline on a paper towel.

what kind of plastic? I have used this product as a solvent for removing the leftover sticky stuff from price tags on a lot of materials and having had a few spills over the years when transferring to my blotter bottle - (not like an acid- more petroleum -gasoline style) I would guess that if it is a sturdy plastic it might be fine- if it were me I would try it in a spot I could live with being a bit damaged and see- good luck

Spray some WD-40 into the label let it soak in for about 2-3 minutes then use any kind of scrapper and wipe off. Repeat if necessary. Its easy....
