If the glue is very dry then cover the resin with a turpentine soaked cloth for a minute before rubbing off the glue. Warm soapy water may also be used to remove the turpentine and other oils but this is a bit more time consuming. Methylated spirits is very effective at removing oils because it is both oil and water soluble so after it has been used remove the oil it can be rinsed off with warm soapy water. Once the glue has been removed then the turpentine or other oil residue needs to be removed.ДЈ. If the glue is very dry then it may be necessary to hold the cloth on the glue a minute or so then start wiping the glue off. Next use a coarse cloth soaked in turpentine (or other oil).

It is best to remove the glazed outer layer of the product label mechanically so that the turpentine has access to attack the glue.Дў.

Be cautious with painted or varnished surfaces or anything that may absorb the oil solvent. I have found turpentine to be fine with glass, metal, some plastics and Teflon coating. If turpentine does damage the surface then try a lubricating oil like WD40 or even a vegetable cooking oil like olive oil.

Check on a small inconspicuous spot that the turpentine will not damage your item.

But, disclaimer here, obviously you will need to check that the turpentine will not damage the surface of the object. I have found that the best solvent for these glues is mineral turpentine.

These labels do not come off with soaking in water and if we donвЂ™t want any scratches on our new product we have to use suitable chemical solvent to dissolve the label glue. In this video I am specifically talking about the water resistant or resin type glue used to stick on some product labels. After a while the label will lift off the article and the glue residue can simply be washed off. The product labels which are stuck on with water soluble glue, like some pickle and jam jars, are not too bad as long as you are able to soak the object in warm soapy water. Very often the manufacturer chooses the most visible or delicate surface of the article to stick the product label. One of my pet hates is trying to remove a sticky product label from a brand new object.
