A simple trick to remove the label
If you have a problem with persistent labels, I will show you how to remove them quickly and effectively. You only need two items: tape (preferably wide) and a lighter.
First, stick a piece of tape on the label. Then, use the lighter to heat the taped area gently. After a moment, simply pull the tape off with a sharp motion, and it's done.
How to remove glue left from the label?
It may happen that the label leaves behind glue that is hard to remove. The solution is mayonnaise, which we usually find in almost every home. Simply apply it to the sticky area. After a few minutes, wash the dish, and it's done.
In addition to mayonnaise, nail polish remover also works well. To use this method, soak a cotton pad in the liquid and place it on the glue residues. After a while, you can clean the surface. The sticky substance should come off easily.
