How to remove paper stickers?

First, consider a few paper-based removal methods.

Method 1

This method is the most harmless and non-toxic:

1. Dampen the surface of the label with a damp sponge.
2. Leave it on for a while so that the paper base is saturated with water.
3. Then you can rub with a sponge, preferably the rough side, occasionally wetting the sponge with warm water. Thus paper and glue roll up into spools.
4. After you need to wipe with a dry cloth - to remove stains.

Important! This method is suitable for still “fresh” stickers and labels. But if you are “old-fashioned”, then follow the same technology, only instead of water you need to use the liquid tool for glasses “Mr. Muscle”.

Method 2

For the second method, we need a hairdryer - the most usual one will be used, with which you style your hair and dry your locks:

1. We heat the label surface with a hairdryer - the adhesive base softens under a stream of hot air.
2. Then gently pry the edge and remove the sticker.
3. The remaining adhesive must be removed immediately with a cloth dampened with window cleaner or acetone. You can use nail polish remover or a more environmentally friendly way - vegetable oil.

Important! When using chemicals to remove stickers from the refrigerator don't forget to wear gloves.

Removing glass stickers

Let's look at the methods of removing stickers from the glass. How to quickly and efficiently clean the glass surface? If you installed new double-glazed windows, do not be too lazy to immediately clear them of all kinds of stickers, advertising printing, since under the influence of sunlight the glue dries very well to the glass, and it is quite difficult to make the surface sparkling in the future.

You can use all the same methods as when cleaning the refrigerator. But if you have a large volume, then it is better to purchase special tools for removing stickers, labels, tags. For example, such:

• pencil marked “Sticker Remover”;
• super glass cleaner - sold in car stores.

This will speed up the work. On each of you will find instructions.

For a good result, follow all the instructions.

If you do not want to use chemistry, consider a more environmentally friendly way. Removing glass stickers with vegetable oil:

1. Wet the cotton pad with vegetable oil and wipe the area clean. The oil will soften not only the sticker, but also the adhesive surface underneath.
2. It is better to do this at night, as you can remove the sticker with a rubber spatula or plastic knife after 5-10 hours. The duration of exposure depends on the quality of the adhesive solution used by the manufacturer.
3. Remove glue residue with a cotton pad with vegetable oil.
4. Rinse with warm water with any detergent that you have on hand.

Important! Also, ammonia, ordinary alcohol, boric alcohol can be used with this technology.
