How do you make the goop mixture to take labels off of pkgs & glass jars?

Thank you all for your helpful answers.

THis might be what you are asking for Mix about a tablespoon of dish soap, such as 'Dawn', and a tablespoon of corn meal, or grits'. Add just enough water to make it 'useable'. Exact proportions are not crucial.

I use really hot water, Dawn Dish & razor blade green scrubber sponge. straight rubbing alcohol works really well as does WD-40

It is basically a penetrating oil, there is no 'recipe'. If you don't have Goo Gone, you can use WD40 in a pinch. It also does a nice job of removing dried paint from paint brushes.

I just use Goo Gone. Works best and is not expensive.
