    Lacquer thinner,WD40.even the heat from a blow dryer to aid in loosening the adhesive.

    A couple drops of vegetable oil may do the trick. Let it sit and penetrate the label. You might have to work on it but it should come off

    Make a paste of oil and baking soda. Apply paste over sticker and let it set for at least 20 minutes, then it will easily come off.

    Heat them up with a hair dryer. They peal off real easy that way.

    Soak in warm water with OxiClean and they slide right off. If there's any sticky residue left use 91% rubbing alcohol to remove.

    Because I couldn't find anything else in the house at the time, I discovered my sewing machine oil works great!

    I lightly score the sticker (don't make scratches on the plastic) and soak with GooGone. Rub off (use a scrubby sponge) and then hit it again with the GooGone and rub with paper towel to get the residue off. Works every time for me.

    WD-40 is what I would use. My son just turned me on to their newest product... WD-40 SPECIALIST RUST RELEASE PENETRANT SPRAY - he says it has a little bit of oil in it. The can is silver and black with yellow "trim". Good luck!

    There is a product called Goo Gone. It takes lots of sticky stuff off especially stickers.

    You can use Wesson Oil or Olive Oil. Oil is the thing that takes the sticky off.

    Thanks so much. The vegetable oil worked great. I have a credit card like ice scraper I have stolen from my husband and keep in my kitchen. Once the oil softened the sticker I used the scraper and it came off goo and all. I wish I knew this years ago. Again Thank You.
