How Do You Remove Sticky Price Tags From The Back Of Books Without Leaving The Sticky Stuff Behind?
My favorite product is Goo-Gone. It works on most anything — and has a pleasant citrus smell. If you want to make a product at home, try a solution of warm water, liquid dish washing detergent, and vinegar or ammonia. I’d put it on a cloth — NOT on the book — and rub it. Otherwise, you’ll saturate the book jacket. I’ve heard others recommend WD-40 and Windex (not together!), though I haven’t tried either. Whatever method you use, first test the cleaning removal material in an inconspicuous part of the surface the label is stuck on the be sure it will not damage that surface. Here’s a handy video as a reminder for how to remove stickers from most any surface: http://www.ehow.com/how_13445_remove-stickers.html Good luck!
