    Removing Sticky Residue

    I had a sticker on the inside of my windshield that I was tired of looking at, so I removed it. Unfortunately, left behind the sticky residue. Does anyone have any suggestions for removing this unsightly mess?

    Goo Gone should remove the sticky residue.

    Aircraft Adhesive Remover from O`Reilly Auto Parts. I`ve never seen a sticky residue that it won`t remove.

    I have not used the Aircraft Adhesive Remover, but I can put in a good word for Goo Gone. Wally should have it, but I can say with confidence that Target does.

    PS - It also smells really good, if that`s worth anything to you

    I got to thinking. You might try using a paper towel moistened with vegetable/ canola oil. I have had success with it in the past, but it also depends on the adhesive.

    They should, but the local home improvement stores does.
