Goo Gone Original Liquid - 8 Ounce - Surface Safe Adhesive Remover Safely Removes Stickers Labels Decals Residue Tape Chewing Gum Grease Tar Crayon Glue

I buy a lot of used books for my business, and those often come with all manner of tags and stickers on them that can leave behind tacky, yucky residue. And with books being sensitive things, I really have to be careful when cleaning away the gunk. I can't have anything that scratches or otherwise mars the surface of a book cover, especially if it's a rare edition set for resale. That's a lot of words to say Goo Gone is just about the best product I've found for that purpose. An eight-ounce bottle doesn't sound like a lot, but a little goes a long way. For my money, and even using it as frequently as I do, one bottle lasts for a long time, which makes it cost effective. It dries quickly, doesn't scratch or mess up book covers, and it's easy to use with just a cotton swab or a little bit of cloth.

This is a really handy product to have! It really works if you use as advertised on the bottle, and it’s very simple. It basically melts sticker gunk away very quickly.

I spilled wax all over our tv stand, the wall and trim. This product almost instantly removed the wax upon contact and required very little work from me. It did not harm the stand, wall or trim. If you like candles or wax melt pots, I highly recommend keeping this on hand.

I wanted it to remove a plastic coating from a plastic container. It did not work. This was disappointing however, I am sure it will work for other things.

Pro: This is an original formula and works great as described. I've used it to remove stubborn adhesive sticker residue for years. I already removed the old stickers pasted on glass and hard plastic coffee cups, but that annoying glue film just wouldn't go away until I used Goo Gone Original Liquid - 8 Ounce on it. Good New!! I have now used the free plastic scraper to remove a MONSTER of a glue pad (designed to capture mice! ) that had been left outside on the sidewalk I was sweeping and I didn't see it until I'd accidentally stepped on it. A neighbor pointed it out to me just as I finished sweeping and we saw that it was partially stuck to the sole of my rubber Crocs sandal shoe. Taking the shoe off, we both attempted to pull the cardboard glue thing off and the more we pulled, the more the glue seemed to stretch, and refused to release! It took the two of us several minutes just to get it off piece by piece. At least I didn't walk into my home with it still stuck on. I know this product isn't supposed to be used on rubber, but Crocs are expensive and I had nothing to lose by attempting to clean off this MONSTER glue from my sandal. Wearing disposable gloves, I first applied it with a lot of paper towels to dissolve and wipe off most of the glue. It worked, but it still was not usable to walk on my carpeted or vinyl floors, so I used the free plastic scraper to push the residue together, then more product, more paper towels, and YES, SUCCESS! As always, I finished up with Dawn dish washing soap and rinsed it off. The whole process took me an hour, so no one can claim it doesn't take perseverance and determination when you encounter a bizarre experience like that! Ha! Retired seniors on a limited income will appreciate this review. I know this review update was long, but I'm sure that folks that have run into 'Oh no!' situations like mine will at least have hope in saving an object that gets stuck with a gluey mess. I'm very happy with the product and still continue to highly recommend it. Thanks Amazon! Con: I seriously dislike that the bottle no longer has the plastic cap with the small hole in the dispenser like the original one had! I had read the reviews from others that complained about this once they removed the paper label tab and discovered it had changed, so now I use a chopstick and poke a hole in the top seal to slow down the amount it would pour out. It helps but still not as good as the previous pour spout it used to have that didn't leak if it got knocked over. The new cap is a push down type 'turn to open,' and to close it is easy enough even with arthritis. You know it's truly closed when the cap stops spinning and making clicking noises.

My friend told me about Goo Gone when I was telling her how I was trying to remove sticker residue off of an item that I was giving away. Nothing I tried was working. Goo Gone worked like a charm! The sticker residue came off so easily. I wish I had known about this earlier!

This stuff is great. Searched all over -- after the 4th store I gave up & ordered it on line.

Does the job. Easy clean up!

Ich habe mir Goo Gone gekauft, weil mich diese hartnäckigen Preisaufkleber auf neuer Deko, Geschirr oder Büchern wahnsinnig gemacht haben. Hausmittel wie Öl oder Föhn haben nie zu 100% funktioniert, aber dieses Zeug ist echt magisch. Vorteile auf einen Blick: * Löst einfach alles: Egal ob alte Sticker, Preisschilder, Reste von Klebeband, Kaugummi oder Wachsmalstift auf dem Tisch – es löst den Kleber in Sekunden an. * Kein Kratzen mehr: Man muss nicht mehr mühsam mit dem Fingernagel knibbeln. Einfach auftragen, kurz einwirken lassen und der Aufkleber lässt sich oft am Stück abziehen oder einfach wegwischen. * Angenehmer Geruch: Es riecht sehr intensiv nach Zitrus/Orange, nicht nach beißender Chemie, was das Arbeiten viel angenehmer macht als mit Verdünnung. * Oberflächenschonend: Ich habe es auf Glas, Keramik, Metall und lackiertem Holz genutzt, ohne dass die Oberfläche angegriffen wurde. * Ergiebig: Man braucht nur ein paar Tropfen auf einem Tuch oder direkt auf dem Fleck. Die Flasche hält ewig. Wichtige Hinweise zur Anwendung: * Fettiger Film: Da das Mittel auf Ölbasis ist, hinterlässt es einen schmierigen Film. Man muss die Stelle danach also unbedingt mit Spülmittel und Wasser abwaschen, besonders bei Geschirr. * Material-Check: Bei unversiegeltem Holz, Leder oder bestimmten Kunststoffen würde ich es vorher immer an einer unsichtbaren Stelle testen, um sicherzugehen, dass es keine Flecken gibt. Fazit: Ein absolutes Muss in jedem Putzschrank. Wer sich regelmäßig über Klebereste ärgert, braucht das. Es funktioniert einfach und ist jeden Cent wert. Klare Kaufempfehlung!

Photo shows area of window treated on the left / untreated area on the right. Last year we bought insect netting for our PVC windows, which we attached with the Velcro-like strips provided. Unfortunately, the Velcro strips came away but left a VERY difficult-to-remove glue residue, which was either extremely sticky or dried rock-hard. Dirt and dust was getting stuck to it, and the glue would not budge. After much distress and desperate Googling, we came across this Goo Gone product and THANK GOD we did! I was sceptical anything could shift that glue, but this stuff really works! We applied copious amounts to tissue/kitchen roll and 'soaked' the gluey surface for a few minutes before attacking with a special plastic scraper. (There's one provided, but we bought an additional one with replacement blades). Sometimes reapplication was required for the tougher spots, but the difference it made was incredible. It took a lot of patience (working on small sections at a time) but the window frames look almost as good as new - and most importantly, are no longer sticky! The product feels very oily but smells quite nice! We simply wiped off the residue and then wiped again with warm water and detergent to remove any lingering oilyness.

Been using this stuff for years. Have tried a few alternatives. I use GOO GONE! Need I say more?

Ottimo!!

Took off all the sticky gunk from one of those snap magnet closure bug screens that you stick on the door frame. I had to let it sit for 15 minutes, but it worked very well with minimal effort. Cleaned up the window frame for a home sale.
