[LM_NET] Hit: adhesive remover

[Ann Carstens <carstensa@HFCHS.ORG>]

(Original post below)

Suggestions I received:
*       Many responded positively about Un-Du; one neutral response, saying
it is similar to Goo-Gone in terms of odor and residue.  One person said
that if any residue remains after Un-Du, DEMCO's book cleaner will take it
off.
*       Hand sanitizer [I tried it, and it works great! Didn't leave any
residue on paperbacks or dust jackets.]
*       WD-40 
*       Product called "Awesome" from Dollar Tree
*       3M adhesive remover
*       Rubbing alcohol
*       Peanut butter
                
                Thanks for all of the responses!
                
                
                Original post: I've been using Goo-Gone to remove stubborn
stickers/labels from books.  It
                leaves a lovely, greasy, smelly residue.  Are there other
products I can
                purchase (that aren't terribly expensive) that do the same
job, without the
                mess?  If you've used Un-Du adhesive remover (available
through DEMCO), do
                you think it's a quality product?
