Removing bottle labels

[blinkey]

Hi again.. I was a novice but now after 70 bottles here r my tips for the best ways i have found

Easy labels ...(seems to be the back labels on most bottles) just soak in hot soapy water .then scrape label off with a knife then clean off any left ova glue with a metal brillo pad ...easy

hard labels ...(the glossy gits on the front that soapy water just wont budge) two ways that worked 4 me

1... Vanish oxy action (1 scoop) in a bowl of hot water ..let them soak for a hour or so then scrape label off with a knife then clean off any left ova glue with a metal brillo pad .. it does work :)

2... (this is my fav ...its great on labels that play hard to get ) heat up the labels with a hair dryer ..when hot just peal the label off ..then clean off any left ova glue with a metal brillo pad :party: this is by far the quickest way i have found !!!

BUT WARNING ..IF USING THE LAST METHOD DONT USE YA MRS'S FAV HAIR DRYER (JUST IN CASE) I DONT WANT ANY EMAIL FROM ANGRY DRUNK WOMEN !! ...horny drunk women is fine but ... lol :whistle:

If they don't soak of in water I bin them. You get to know which are the easiest bottles and look out for those.

However I wish I new about the hair dryer as I had 50 thwaites which had plastic labels and I binned.
