NexGen: Tech Tip V. Remove Labels and Adhesives

phoenixcomm

Ever try and remove a label from plastic? Yep, WD-40, Goo Gone, and others including yep peanut butter well just don't really work, or damage the plastic that the label is attached to. Most of you have used the old stand by a hair drier as well. But that tends to leave a residue, and you cant use it on PCB boards as its way too hot.image

Well, you got to check this stuff out. Motsenbocker's LIFT OFF Tape, Label, and Adhesive Remover. I have this old Milwaukee too case that had some fool put masking Duck tape on. And I could never get it cleaned up. Squirted a little on the mess and bingo it came off with a scratcher sponge. A little soap and warm water and it looked factory fresh.image

On-line it is about $10, but at Walmart, it is about $6.

 

 

 

 

 

UPDATES:

Sorry Fix: not masking tape but Duck Tap!

Added the third and fourth sentences starting with: "Most of you have used the"

  • OK, I shelled out $38.22 Canadian to Amazon on your commentary for 32oz of the label removing elixir.

     

    Your pic of the removal products looked like it was taken from the shelf in my garage. I am hoping the product has success on removing the labels on liquor bottles.

    A number of years ago I found, in a computer book store of all places, a book on building ships in a bottle. That book caused me to set sails for a hobby that competes for time with my love of dabbling in technology.

     

    One of the most arduous tasks is bottle preparation! The fk'n labels on some products never want to give up the bottle without a g.d. fight. A few bottles have gone against the garage wall in frustration. Funny, when I started the hobby I told myself I would have to develop patience in order to self teach myself the skills.

     

    I am waiting for the box with a smile, to delivers the solution to eliminate the need to patch holes in the drywall on my garage wall.

     

    I have bookmarked this post to give you an update of the results.
