My son’s shirt was washed and dried (in a dryer) with a sticker on it and now a white sticky goo residue is left on it. How do you remove this sticker residue?

We asked the cleaning pros from Simply Spotless in Brighton, MI and they gave us a simple, cheap solution that works perfectly!
rubbing alcoholThe answer is everyday average isopropyl alcohol, better known as rubbing alcohol!

We tested it in our home laundry room where we had dryer-baked-on sticker residue on a quick-dry athletic shirt. We found that putting the rubbing alcohol on a scrubby sponge then gently rubbing the sticker residue out worked best. This will loosen the sticky residue and if needed you can simply wipe or pick the remaining bits away with your fingers.

If this trick works for you, share it with your friends on Facebook!
