OT - Glue removal

 

Hi everyone,

 

Well, I pulled a good one a couple of days ago and still haven't found

a way out of this sticky mess.

 

I have been sorting through stuff and rearranging a storage area. In

so doing I managed to set a toilet riser leg smack in the middle of a

fresh,just out of the box, mouse glue trap. Yes, you read that right.

Now I have soaked, and dug, soaked more (in alcohol) and I can't remove

all the glue. What I can remove from the bottom of the chair leg ends

up on my hands. I've laughed till my sides hurt but that isn't working

either.

 

What solvent(s) would take this stuff off????

 

I just know someone on this wonderful list will come to my rescue. I

will be forever greatful.

Hugs,

Buffy

Have you tried heating the glue with hot, boiling water and wiping it off. How

about finger nail polish remover or paint thinner?

I know there's a product called Goof Off, which my husband - who is a remodeler

- uses for all kinds of stuff like this. Lin

I use goof off to get crayon markings off the wall. I have to use the magic

eraser with it or it stays.

Thanks gcw, ptc & Linda,

 

I tried the nail polish remover last night, will check on that in a

short. After reading the other suggestions, I remembered that I had a

product called Oops!which states it removes glue, although it has a lot

of warnings on it. I think I will save that one as a last resort.

 

Thanks again everyone, I think I'm armed now to get that stuff off.

This list is so gracious and helpful.

Hugs,

Buffy
