I don’t have a real answer for you but I will say that olive oil works well for this.
I worked on a Christmas tree lot through my winters as an undergrad and olive oil always worked well. Of course then you need soap and water to remove the olive oil.
- sand500 3y agoThis is great for when the contaminant is oil soluble but not water soluble.
- e12e 3y agoGuessing inside (white side) of orange peel will work too (the oils are used to make various cleaning products).
- ska 3y agoIIRC This is why "goo gone" product is really good with many adhesives.
- burnte 3y agoThat's my favorite adhesive remover. And it cleans up well afterwards with Dawn soap and water.
- TeMPOraL 3y agoDoes it have a generic name for non-American audience?
- ska 3y agoI don't know if it does. It's the original from here: https://googone.com/original https://googone.com/original I imagine there are variations in other places, I think it's mostly concentated citrus oils from oranges.

- s5300 3y ago>>Coffee grounds or that mechanic paste might do pretty well also “Magic All Natural Industrial Hand Cleaner (with walnut shells)” Is downright the best thing I’ve ever encountered for cleaning anything on the hands. Anything sticky, greasy, non-newtonian… etc. it scrubs right off. Person who’s worked in grimy machine shops for 30 years introduced me to it. Fast Orange is a complete & utter disgrace comparatively. Coffee grounds are nice, but walnut grounds are far superior.
- brailsafe 3y agoHaven't heard of walnut grounds, and yes fast orange is meh. Thanks for the suggestion.
- soperj 3y agoCoconut Oil works as well.
- senderista 3y agoAlso works for jackfruit residue.
