Does anyone have a quick and easy way to get the spray adhesive off your hoops?

I've found a cotton ball and acetone work beautifully. Be careful with the acetone because it will remove paint also.

Briefly soak in warm water, not the screw part... then rub off with fingers. The gunk kinda rolls up in a ball and then just pull off.

I find a rub with Eucalyptus Oil and followed by a wash in warm soapy water. It gets chewing gum off of things safely so it wont hurt the hoop.

Wal Mart has De-Solv-it. It works great on the adhesive left on hoop. Then I wash the hoop with a cloth. Hope that helps

When you have nothing at home to use, grab the bottle of alcohol. Then I also use this "Super Klean" from WalMart in the auto department, it's in the big purple jug. Works great on anything.

Sandy, DK5 works wonders - but as others have said - use alcohol if you haven't any DK5 - Hehehe!

I, too, use DK5. Haven't tried the alcohol, maybe cheaper and just as effective.

Very good ques. sandy. Being a nurse I have n times past had a lot of the packs of adhesive remover we use to take off tape. Alcohol I always have & it works well. *4u
