If the usual methods fall short, you can try several other common items:
- Vinegar: The acidity in white vinegar naturally breaks down adhesives. Soak a cloth in vinegar, place it on the residue, let it sit a few minutes, then wipe it away.
- Baking Soda: Make a paste with baking soda and a bit of water. Gently scrub the sticky area with this paste—it’s a mild abrasive that’s usually safe on glass.
- Olive Oil: Oil softens adhesive, making it easier to remove. Apply a small amount, wait a few minutes, then wipe clean. Follow with soap and water to remove any oily residue.
