  1. Get a washcloth and wet it with hot water and hold it on the stickers for a couple minutes. The stickers will rub off and then you can deal with the adhesive by using a scrubber-some dishwashing liguid and elbow grease.


  2. try and peel off as much of the stickers as you can, then just get a bucket of water and a sponge and scrub the rest off.. Or, get a new door! lol

  3. WD- 40 and a paper towel...

    Works everytime!

  4. I hear that tea tree oil works. Otherwise methylated spirits/turpentine

  5. There are many products specifically able to remove old adhesive from surfaces.  One home remedy is to use WD40.  Be gentle and use water between scrubs.  This should not damage any finish on the door.

  6. Get this stuff called Goop. It works like a charm and is also good for many other things around the house. If you can't find it try Goof Off it works good too. Also, you might try good old fashioned Peanut Butter. Rub the Peanut Butter all over the sticky stuff with an old washcloth. When you've gotten the sticky stuff off, then clean the door with Windex to get off all of the residue. Peanut Butter is also good for getting the sticky lable stuff off of jars and for getting gum out of your hair and other things.

  7. Try baby oil or xylene.

    Sticker contain two types of adhesive.Water soluble as well as solvent soluble.After trying the above solvent wash with soap.

  8. ok try and peel what you can and scrub the rest with and alcohol pad. i had to do the same thing for my desk and it worked like a charm!

  9. WD 40 or goop that mechanics use to get grease off their hands. They also sell goo gone,any of these will work.

  10. walmart has this stuff and its in the car section its called goo gone  just put some on ur finger and rub it over each sticker and peel it right off  it works really great
