Does anyone know how to clean the sticky stuff which gets left behind after you take off a price tag? Not something you can directly wash, but like a pencil case. Any ideas?
Re: Sticky stuff after taking off a price tag
Take a piece of cloth/cotton and dampen it with soap-hot water mixture. Clean the residue with that.
If that doesn't work, use hand sanitizer or vegetable oil in place of soap mixture.

nail polish remover will do it for things that are colour-safe.

I don’t know how this sounds but growing up us kids used mayonnaise to scratch off stickers. Worked extremely well.
Re: Sticky stuff after taking off a price tag
^ because it has oil in it
I use alcohol swabs for this purpose

Goo Gone is the best!
I use oil.
Re: Sticky stuff after taking off a price tag
Sprinkle a lot of talcum powder and leave it overnight. Next morning just remove it with cotton dipped in nail polish remover. Works well for clothes too if they dont run colours

Re: Sticky stuff after taking off a price tag
Thank you everyone! Finally did my experiment!
I tried 4 different things mentioned here and some worked like a charm, while others not so much.
In order of best results!
Oil: Without a question, works 100%! I seriously wasn’t expecting it, but WOW! Within seconds the glue is gone, and the surface is clean.
Hot water + soap: Next best would be this simple combo. Though, didn’t do the BEST job, but not bad.
Nail polish remover: If you scrub really hard, it would work, but than you don’t want to damage the product either.
Mayo: This was kind of a fail for me. It was more messy than anything else.
