3po3 on Aug 24, 2012I just dunk mine in hot, soapy water. It should be easy then to peel off the label, or scrub a little bit if you need to.Helpful Reply

Maria on Mar 17, 2016Peanut butter. You don't have to buy anything special. Everybody has peanut butter on hand. First I take the tip of a pointed knife and score the label then I cover the label with peanut butter. I let it sit overnight on a plate, then take a paper towel and rub it off. Works every time. The nice thing about the peanut butter is it won't run off down the sides like oils do. Hope this helps.Helpful Reply
