I use either rubbing alchol or Mennen's preshave or skin conditioner...whatever they call it.

Works wonders.

A 'cutie" (sorry forgotten who it was) posted that she uses - Eucalyptus Oil
Well I used it the last time I cleaned my hoops, it worked well. Ensure that you do it outside because of the smell. hugs Yvonne

I know what you mean - I have some sticky from all of the applique that I have been doing. Time to clean them up.

I use 'sticky stuff remover' (only because DH is an engineer and it is part of the tool kit). You might find that WD40 works - it is incredible..

I like a item called Sure Clean
purchased at Sally's Beauty Supply to clean hoops
Also removes chewing gum, candle wax, pencil marks, grease and much more.

Hi over here in Australia we practically always use Eucalyptus Oil - it removes anything "sticky".

As Beth says it is great to use for allergies. You can use it in your hudmidifier and you can breathe clearly all night or day for that fact.

Love Chris

You can buy sticky remover stuff, there is a bunch of different ones here, Eucalyptus oil is good, or baby oil or bath oil. if you have Avon skin so soft bath oil that will work. The general idea is something oily. Even olive oil will have some effect.

I use a product called Goo Gone. Goo gone gets rid of sticky spots and stains almost effortlessly like grease, gum, stickers, crayons, tape, lipstick, scuff marks and grease.. It combines orange oils and other ingredients to eliminate the toughest grime on almost any surface. Have purchased it for $1.00 at Dollar Tree, and a bit more at Wal-Mart and the Drug Stores.

Thanks for the question - now I know the answer when my frames get sticky. Flowers for all

gotta get some of that ecualyptus oil...first i have to learn to spell it!!! thanks for the tip. i use it in flower arrangements for fall & winter. i love the aroma.

I keep a spray bottle of Goo Gone close at hand. It works wonders

I would use peanut butter. I have gotten every label and glue residue off that way. Leave on a thin layer oover night. Rinse off the next day.It's cheaper than Goo Gone. Don't forget to lick your fingers. :-)

I have used goo gone but I find that soaking it in hot water with "Dawn" dishwashing liquid works really well too. I just fill up a pan with with water and add some Dawn and let it soak then wipe it down with a wash cloth and rinse.

In the netherlands you can buy: sticker remover. you can also use cleaning spirit to remove the glue.
good luck in cleaning.

Save the used dryersheets then use Goo Gone. That way you don't wasre paper towels either. Stella

I use Goo-gone and then carefully wash the hoops in soapy water to get rid of the residue. It works well and quickly.
