HG sticker remover

Well. I bought this having tried several other products to remove a large rectangle of double sided sticky tape left behind on my front door, but without success (the door is upvc FYI). If you’re in the camp of people who love the smell of petrol/marker pens/nail varnish remover etc, then you’ll love the smell of this - I’m not in that camp, so found it unpleasant. The strength of the odour actually gave me a bit of a headache so I’d wear a mask another time. Anyway, we aren’t buying it for its fragrant qualities, are we?! Onto the effectiveness. It works. Plain and simple. It removed this ugly rectangle of residual glue with minimal effort. I used a dry kitchen cloth (one you might use to wipe your sides down) and put the solvent directly onto it. The solvent is clear and about the same consistency as water so it’s very runny. I gave the glue a soak by dabbing it on, initially, then with a good rub, the glue started to come away with the second application. I would recommend wearing rubber gloves when using. WARNING: use a cloth you’re willing to throw away after. I made the fatal mistake of putting the cloth into a wash with other whites (so 60 degrees) and it made the entire wash reek of the solvent. It literally contaminated everything. After another three washes the smell had lessened, but not gone! Overall, I’d recommend this for sticker/glue removal - it’s very effective - but please bear in mind my errors and avoid them yourself!

Great product for removing sticky labels. Had new French doors covered in stickers that wouldn't peel off and where it did come off left sticky glue behind. This solution is thin like water consistency but heavy solvent scent similar to paint thinner. I used a half inch cutting in paint brush which just fitted in the neck of the bottle to paint the solution onto the stickers and qas straight forward to apply. Painted it on the stickers left for a few mins and then re-applied like the instructions stated. Left them for around 20 to 30 mins and I found that the stickers sort of 'wilted' they had curled up and come away from the upvc around all.edges and the white stickers had turned light brown. I found that the stickers just come off with ease when lifting them off. The stickers became sort of like bits.of baking paper is the only way to describe it. Found that 95% of glue residue came off with the stickers and for any residue left I just painted some of the solution onto those spots and they wiped off after minute. Great stuff well worth the money and comes in a good sized bottle with a security cap fitting. Also used it to remove the glue left behind from expanding foam to seal window gaps that I had scraped back but it had left an adhesive mark on the plastic. Always found this tricky to get off but this solution worked great and softened the adhesive so it just wiped off. Will definitely buy this again once I use this bottle up.

Great product. It does have a strong smell so please vent the room you use this product. You will have to use a lot of the strong glue the scrap off but works well

Worked super well on the window stickers as we had new window and the stickers came right off with this stuff . Also used it on my door also to get off the grime and sticky marks from sticking birthday banners up with tape and other things. Would highly Recommend this product

It still smells strong but not as strong as other brands I’ve used. Equally efficient. Great value for money.

The bottle should have the warnings NOT just the small print drop down on Amazon. The smell is very strong, I stupidly used it in my whole downstairs hallway on doubled sided tape and I have two young children in the house. It does not say on the label you should wear protective clothing, masks and gloves but does mentioning inhaling can be dangerous. The idea of the product is paint it on; peel it off; then apply again to remove residue. I have had double sided tape stuck on my walls, ceilings and doors since October. I have tried so many homemade remedies and none worked well or quite so easily. I tested this product on a small area by the front door - poured the product into a plastic party cup, slathered it onto a section of double sided tape with a painters brush, left it for about 10 minutes then came back and used a rough kitchen towel to get it off. During that time two things happened: 1. Within the first five minutes of the product being in the cup the whole bottom of it melted clean off. 2.It worked the taped seemed to harden, the glue lose its stick and just roll right off. It did smell very strong, like floor polish almost and did leave liquid marks which look abit oily but did not damage the paint on the walls and I do intend to paint over it anyways. I stupidly decided to do my whole downstairs hallway. I slapped this stuff all over the doubled sided tape/table clothe pieces that were stuck to my ceilings, covering my walls and downstairs doors and it's now 3am and all I can smell is that stuff. Further more as the packaging didn't mention wearing protective clothing, face masks or gloves, I took no extra procaution and it ran all down my hand and arm to which it gradually burnt. I did soap and rinse my arm several times to get it off. What's worse, after applying it to everywhere, I tested removing it on the section of the wall, first using the cloth to just wipe it off, it did wipe off that part of extra residue and adhesive spray there too with no effort which was greatly BUT on my living room door, the double sided tape, and other random glue tape residue stains is still stuck pretty solid but the parts that did come off and around the bits I scrubbed with the kitchen towel the paint of the door had melted and caused the door to be discoloured. I've left it on the walls as the smell is over bearing but it's seeping into the upstairs bedroom now. I guess for the next few days we'll be spending our time upstairs until it's vented out. I gave it 3 stars as the product did work but I do also believe it is not safe and definitely not recommended to smile around it with no protective gear like i did coping the lady in the photo.

This stuff works as do many HG Products. Be warned, the smell will linger for a long time

Worked really well - had sticker residue from a bumper sticker on my car and this worked with removing the sticky stuff. My only issue is that it seems to be quite a dangerous chemical product so wouldn’t use often at all as the product warnings were a bit alarming.

Does the job perfectly!
