Here's How:
- To Remove Stickers
If you have a stubborn sticker that doesn't want to fully come off of your clothes, there are a few different things you can try. Start with an ice cube. This is especially effective if there is residue of the paper stuck to the clothing. Rub the sticker stain with an ice cube to freeze and loosen the sticky adhesive. If this doesn't work, you can try rubbing a little cooking or baby oil into the stained area to help loosen the sticker. Then fully rinse the stained area. Rub liquid laundry detergent into the stain and wash normally.
- To Remove Glue and Adhesive
For glue and other water-based types of adhesives, use a spoon to remove any excess glue. Try rubbing petroleum jelly into the stain, picking out any pieces of glue that become loosened. Then to remove the petroleum jelly, rub dish soap into the stained area and rinse thoroughly with the hottest water that is safe for the fabric. Repeat until no more glue remains before washing in the washing machine with the hottest water that is safe for the fabric.
Tips:
- Be gentle when pulling loosened pieces of the glue, sticker, or adhesive from your clothing. If you pull too forcefully, you may damage the fibers of the clothing.
