Glue From Under Stickers
Hi, I have a problem which as I suppose isn't very common
Maybe because I am a pedant maybe because of another reason I hate those windows7, intel centrino, ati radeon graphis, etc stickers on my laptop's case..
But when I unsticking them they are leaving glue....
HOW TO GET RID OF THIS F..... GLUE ???
regards
I wanna add that I have Vaio FW51 so it's made of silver plastic ... its a bit light silver, so the solution can't leave any traces...
Oh, I've just read 'Superglue on my laptop..
' thread... but my problem isn't so big, it's not superglue, just normal glue used to attach those stickers...

Re: Glue From Under Stickers
Rubbing alcohol (stronger is better, I use 91%) and a dish rag has worked perfectly for my last three notebooks. I hear Goo Gone works great as well, although I've never tried it.

Re: Glue From Under Stickers
Goo Gone is seconded. From the number of other people that have recommended it to me, it seems fairly good.

Re: Glue From Under Stickers
Before I start washing, I use my fingernail to scrape off as much as possible.

Re: Glue From Under Stickers
Rubbing alcohol (91%) works well. Actually, a tiny bit of hand lotion also works quite well (I would recommend one without much of a scent
), depending on the surface.
