I think I bought it in the adhesives aisle of either Joann's or AC Moore (a craft store). Try it on a small area to be sure it doesn't harm your teak finish.
I finally used goo gone on the teak and it worked fine, but thanks for the info on the DK5. My hoops look terrible, but I've been hesitant to use goo gone on them for fear of getting the oil on whatever I embroider next.

I am really glad everybody found products to clean up overspray. I once had a really stupid idea to use a batting that you used steam to attach to the fabric. I was sandwiching a flannel quilt and thought it was thick enough and I would be fine on my dining room table. NOT! Every place where I hovered with my steam iron left a white spot on my dark pine table. I said a few really ugly works, shed a few tears and bought a table cloth. I screwed up, move on.

Murphys oil soap fixed mine up nicely.

I have some scrubbys made from Aunt Lydias rug yarn and they work great from getting the sticky off my cutting mat.

There is a product called Goo Gone that I buy at a large hardware store (Menards) that works great on most hard t remove stuff and works well on wood.

In a small space, try mineral oil and 0000 steel wool This is used to put a 'hand rubbed' finish on furniture, I used it on a bench that someone with sweaty body sat on and left an imprint. A little patience and it is like new. Much easier than a refinish job.

Try WD-40. It removes sticky labels from bottles.
