I have a hard time using anything with 'smells' so I try a more organic approach first. If it is a small enough piece (or a kid's shirt with stuff on it!), try freezing it. Then it is usually easy to scrape off the hardened glue. If the item has no grease in it and is a wax base, try ironing it with a brown sack on top. As it heats, it should be absorbed into the bag. Neither of these are foolproof and are a bit harder, but they are chemical free.

I have used Goo Gone forever and never heard of Un-Du. I think I may try it next time around. Thanks for the tip, Onebyone.

A few years ago I had a lot of fat quarters from Hancocks with large stickers on them, and I used a hair dryer on the stickers, and they peeled off nicely.

!!! Dangerous enough that it can be shipped only by ground. No shipping to Hawai`i or Alaska.

I usually use sticky tape to remove residue from glass or fabric.

Thanks for all of your replies.. first thing I tried was the hot iron with a pressing cloth. It didn't stick to the pressing cloth but the glue got goey and I could scrape it off. yay!

Thanks everyone!

Sorry ,but I would return the fabric. this happen with clothes never came off. Goo gone will eat the fabric.

I meant by UnDo being non toxic as to the item you apply it too. It won't hurt delicate paper or cloth. I've never had a problem with it. I know the local museum uses it to remove stuck together papers and pictures.

I used Goo Gone on fabric and it lifted the color out, so I ended up putting an appliqué on it.
