Decorative Stick-On Removal

Question?

We put decorative stick-ons in the bottom of our fiberglass tub to prevent falls. With age, the top layer began to fleck off leaving the adhesive on the tub. We have tried boiling water, scraping and scouring to remove the adhesive and remaining top layer.

We have been unable to get rid of this unsightly mess. Any suggestions?

B.L.

Answer!

Your best bet is to use WD-40. Besides being a lubricant, WD-40 is effective in removing factory-applied labels from plumbing fixtures and appliances, and will work wonders in getting stick-ons off the bottom of your tub.
