Goo gone
 

I bought some fabric off ebay and I am happy with the fabric and price - its very cute :) But the person had a sticker on the fabric and when I pulled it of most of the sticker stayed behind on the fabic

I have Goo Gone but I have never used it on fabric Will Goo Gone stain my fabric?

I have used it on fabric and as soon as I got it all off, I rubbed a small amount of Dawn You could also try rubbing alcohol.

tess is right. Be careful with how hard you rub with it, and immediately put Dawn on it and wash.
Good luck!

Goo Gone stinks and hard to get rid of the smell. I use UnDo. It works better and non toxic. It's safe for photographs stuck to glass, won't harm the photo. In fact it is what professional photo shops used, that kept stuff like this a big secret.

thanks for your responses

Onebyone - I have never heard of Undo. I will have to check it out. :)

You could always try acetone (nail polish remover), and some adhesives dissolve with plain alcohol.

Depending on how big the sticker was, I would be tempted to just cut that area out instead of messing with chemicals.

have you tried to put a bit of muslin over it and then a hot iron to "melt" the sticky stuff? That would be what I'd try first.

didn't think of that.. but I don't think there's much sticky left. Like its an old sticker.. I think I am going to try that tho Thanks

Onebyone - thanks for the link I had never heard of this stuff before
