A very cool invention! Bet this person has made some bank. :)

That, combined with a hair dryer, makes it so much easier to remove labels.

ETA: I found one of these, Used, on eBay and it's perfect. It's the small travel version with a folding handle and has Tourmaline crystals in it which help reduce static electricity. It's great for my hair, as well! :)

I lied, I actually use this...

Duck Brand 527263 Adhesive Remover 5.45-Ounce Bottle with Scraper Cap https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00178MNVS/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_ttIDybXXDANX6

Safe for all surfaces but does have a strong citrus smell of that bothers you.

I like that yours looks like industrial strength stuff a janitor would have. :D

Get yourself some Scotty Peelers. The plastic ones are pretty safe for surfaces.

These work pretty well too, and your money might go farther

Try this stuff to get the sticky gunk out after you figure out how to take the actual grip off. It's all natural ingredients and oil based, so it doesn't damage your board. I don't actually know how to take the tape off though. Good luck!

I was wondering if that was pure, but I couldn't find a source to back it up. Thanks.

Doc's is the best price, Second is the same size but no brand name, Bestine is the priciest because you're paying for the brand, it's literally 100% more expensive than the other two after shipping.

Doc Edington's

Not so easy on a book but I buy and sell stuff that often has stickers. I use this sticker removal kit. The plastic scrapers are pretty handy. I actually sharpened the plastic edges with a nail file, works better. Usually I use citrus based cleaning wipes and goo gone as well but that would likely smear the ink on a book cover.

Scotty Peelers are amazing! I bought some of them specifically for removing stickers from Gamestop cases after I bought them after I got tired of peeling them off by hand, having sticky residue left behind, then having my game cases stick together in the shelf.

Any small amount of residue left behind can easily be wiped away with Goo Gone and a washcloth.

Bring headphones (I listened to audio books). Make sure each team member has their regular department, and have a sign off so u know who did what and that it was finished without hunting them down. Plan your path through the department. With the paper tags u have to tear learn the order and tear them b4 u go out so u have a stack and dont have to tear as you go. When putting out tags do one type at a time, i.e. I started with peg hook tags - square tags - rectangle - etc. This is so u aren't switching between piles or searching. Other than all that just learn to go into zombie mode and it will fly by. You can try a tool like the "Scotty Peeler" if your having issues getting the tags off. I normally put the peg labels on lightly so they peel easy and for things that I know change every week I put a little hanging over so I can tear and go (some leaders dont like this). (back to keeping to your assigned departments) (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0068QIQVA/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_jiqUBb33F55WF)

I hate that as well, for me if I rush it I end up messing it up so I go slow with good results. If you can get a perfect can and or catch lid out of a roll just use that one. There is also stuff like this https://www.amazon.com/Scotty-Peelers-Label-Sticker-Remover/dp/B0068QIQVA

Mother effing Scotty peelers FTW http://www.amazon.com/Scotty-Peeler-Label-Sticker-Remover/dp/B006WFMGYK/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1407972507&sr=8-4&keywords=metal+scotty+peeler

Goo Gone

Wonderful stuff.

everyone should have a can of 3M citrus based adhesive remover around the house. Its invaluable for things like this. If you want a smaller can here ya go

I know you already have it off, but wanted to share for anyone else removing stickers. Scotty peeler was a life changer for me and boat stickers, and now any stickers.

Goo Gone will remove those stickers, leaving a nice shine, in 1 minute.

I like Goo Gone for this sort of thing.

I used a Goo Gone Pen See Here

The applicator's tip seemed like it would be soft enough to be safe. I was wrong.

I'd try these, they work well for this type of thing.

aerosol chewing gum remover makes it less sticky so that you can pick it off. ex:

https://smile.amazon.com/BWK353AEA-Chewing-Gum-Candle-Remover/dp/B004I2IAWQ

but in case you don't have that (most people don't), what the aerosol does is basically freeze it instantly. you could get similar effect by putting ice cubes and salt in a small ziploc bag and holding it over the spot.

SOLUTION

They actually make super glue solvent.

Goo gone.

A product called Goo gone is made to do just this

Get some Goo Gone ( https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07PW7J8QG/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_IAKRDbKXESXYC )

Put some on a paper towel and it does wonders

I use scotty peelers I had laying around. They were made to remove store price stickers. They have a thin sharp edge that really gets under the print. https://www.amazon.com/Scotty-Peelers-Label-Sticker-Remover/dp/B0068QIQVA/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1491591135&sr=8-2&keywords=sticker+remover

Get a set of these Scotty Peelers. For sticky residue you can use rubbing alcohol or Goo Gone. I've also seen people suggest lighter fluid or hairspray, although I've not personally used either.

This stuff right here is almost fucking magical at removing anything attached with an adhesive: http://www.amazon.com/3M-Adhesive-Remover-fl-spray/dp/B003ZHOZRO

Goo Gone works for all sticky stuff.

Scotty Peeler is the god at removing price stickers. You will also need to use blow dryer/heat gun to activate the glue, whilst removing the tag. Check youtube for more info.

If there is some glue leftover (usually the case for old old tag) then you can try using googone or similar products.

absolutely. For most, Goo Gone and a rag will work. For very stuck on ones, I have a Wagner heat gun that I will blast it for a few seconds and it will lift right off.

Scotty Peelers are also a very useful tool for removing stickers.

I have obtained similar items when buying iphones and video game consoles. I can't recommend these particular ones, but the cords I have come in handy. First one is for the several different apple products, 2nd link is for ps2/ps3, wii and xbox 360. The particular one I have has an adapter for some older nintendo consoles.
