Hello, Hometalkers...
I have tried in vain to remove the sticky back labels from Yankee candle jars, especially when they are coated over in the metallic finish. I've tried Goo Gone, pure acetone, Avon's Skin so Soft, peanut butter and rubbing alcohol with no luck. Please HELP!
Thank you all!

Your next choices are oil. Any kind including old cooking oil. My new favorite is WD-40!! My hubs pointed me to it.
Soak them i hot water and then rub oil of any kind .That should soften enough to be able to scrape off.
thats great. Have a wonderful holiday as well...
Do u know you can just use baking soda and coconut oil and let it sit on the label for about. 30 to 45 min and it will come off.
Goo Gone works on all sticky goo. And only $1 at dollar tree
I never thought it would work either. I remember looking at my hubs thinking what does this man think he knows? It's a good thing that I didn't say anything. WD-40 is what I use all of the time now!
Happy Christmas and Merry New Year to you too!
Your welcome!! Happy Holidays to you also!🌲🎁
Can you soak them with the candle still intact? I have candles in glass jars I purchased as gifts but want to remove the label to add personalized decals. Can anyone help me?
Wd40
@ Patti All you need is about a tsp of Coconut oil and tsp of baking soda make it into a paste and it will take the label off.
Baby oil will take it right off
Try WD-40?
