Need advice on removing price stickers!

[alsup2311]

I just got 11 T206's in the mail today and they have little white stickers on the backs with the price hand written stuck directly on the slab. When I remove them it is leaving that nasty glue residue on the slab. I went to the garage and grabbed my trusty old can of "Goof Off". Bad idea!! That goof off ruined it. I guess the plastic SGC uses and goof off (Lighter fluid more less) don't mix! I have tried windex and other things, but nothing is working. Does anyone have any tricks to help me out?

Thanks,
Dan

tape fights tape. use some scotch tape and repeatedly stick it onto the gummy area and pull it off. Stick it and pull off. Again and again and it will eventually remove all the residue.

Thank you Jason! This is driving me crazy. I will try that right now.

Thanks for helping out a rookie! It took some time, but it eventually all came off.

Lighter fluid. Not Goof Off.

A little bit of the Novus #2 has always done the trick for me.

Nu Finish. The best thing I have ever used to remove any type of sticker. I swear it sounds weird but the stuff is complete magic in sticky situations (no pun). It works fast and does no damage to the surface it touches. I have tried goof off and goo be gone, etc etc on some things and they didn't work. Nu finish has never failed. My grandfather taught me this trick a decade or so ago and haven't needed to used anything else.

Thanks guys! I plan on trying them all and finding my favorite. I am kind of a perfectionist on the slab even though it may hold an SGC 10.

Thanks,
Dan
