[QUOTE="KingofThings, post: 286864, member: 468"]I use LF constantly to get labels off. I cut off the childproof tab first as it's a PITA. :p Then make sure the label is as level as possible. Then if, just one item, drip a bit of LF on the label and put the bottom of the bottle over it for 5 minutes or so so it doesn't evaporate fast. I have more than one thing going, I do a lot of books this way, I use little bottles and things to cover the labels. Then, if left long enough, they just lift off. If there is still some glue residue I use LF on soft TP to get that off. ;) If I have curved items I lay them in a bunched towel, label up, put LF on it and then use zippy bags laid flat over them with a soft item over that for weight and pressure such as a kitchen towel. And the bags can still be used. :)[/QUOTE]
