Effective removal of selotape and labels from a WC

[The Bedwetter]

Could anybody please recommend an effective method for removing selotape and labels from a WC. I have just opened the delivery box to find the pan, cistern and lid absolutely covered in the damn things – no doubt a display model.


Thanks for any help.

Bit of wd40.

 

[galaxy_plumbing]

can you return it or tell them to clear it for you?

Turps.

Thanks for the speedy reply, guys.

herbert: I will give the WD a try.


galaxy_plumbing: Sadly, there is not really time for it to be returned and exchanged as I need to install it a bit pronto.


Howsie: Have not used any turps for years but I will try the WD first and then obtain some turps if necessary.

Cheers. :smile:

With a name like that you'll probably spray with WD40 and it will slip out of your hands , fall on your foot, break your toe ,smash into hundreds of bits. You won't be able to get a replacement because its an end of line display model . We're you bullied at school?

Acetone , works the best and if you cant find any by a pot of waste pipe cleaner its acetone, just 4 times the price, or nick the womans nail polish remover

Yes, me too.

It was supposed to link to a Staples product called "sticky stuff remover". Great for removing unwanted sticky stuff (oo-eerr Missus!)
