Why do they stick labels on every piece that leaves residue &amp; how do you get it off without scratching the non-sitck coating?

Soak it in warm soapy water or use a little Goo Gone and wash them well afterward.

The tape is plastic with adhesive on the back. It takes a bit of work to "pick at" a corner to remove the plastic labels. You may need some "goo remover" to remove any residual adhesive.

I had this same question & mentioned it in my review, as well. I hypothesized that by having the sticker, they don't have to use any "glue" on the start of the roll, (I don't think there's any at the end, either, or at least there's very little) and any "adhesive" is contained in the sticker. At first, it bothered me, but now not so much. I'm interested to see what they do for the replacement. :)

I have removed them from some surfaces... particularly hard ones like plastic, glass, etc. However, they will likely self-distruct when done. Paper is another issue. You would probably destroy both the label and the paper it's attached to. You could try heating it with a hair dryer first as that may soften the grip of the label glue used.

Use dawn or nail polish remover to rub off the hard label. It will take a few minutes to do so. keep applying the dawn or nail polish remover until the label is completely ofd.

I've done hundreds of records with no label damage. You get an very occasional drip across the label but it's over 99% distilled water (you *are* using distilled water, right?) so you can blot it right off with no worries.

I use a putty knife and it is very simple. Nevertheless, the stickiert part is to clean the tool and any other thing that touches accidentlly the product. I use to clean the tool with a rag that I discard after using. But a solvent should help.

Sharing something I discovered... Easiest way to remove labels with permanent adhesives: microwave entire object (okay for glass, plastic, ceramics) for 10-30 seconds (depending on microwave power), and they will peel right off, glue and all. There may be a bit of residue, but that will wash off with a detergent no problem.

I've only used the labels on glass and plastic. You are able to remove and restock them. I think it would depend on the surface area of the fabric e.g. if it's smooth, glossy, etc.

I heated the label with a hairdryer, then peeled it off cleanly. I don't know if heating the residue will come off if heated with a hairdryer.

they're sticker-like labels, so you can definitely remove them. it may require some cleaning afterwards (for the glue) but nothing major

when you finish making your label when you see it comming out of the top just bring it out so you can cut it with sissors leave enough room on both sides to even it off ok . if you have any problem just email it back

I have found the explanation! I called the manufacturer, and as it turns out, about a year ago they had a shipment of these go out with the wrong adhesive. The labels had the heavy-duty adhesive that was used for their shipping boxes. The woman I spoke to was very nice, and offered to send me a replacement. The label on mine is not coming off with any amount of elbow grease or tricks. She was wondering how they were still out there, since it was a couple hundred of them and it was a year ago. It must be a particular third party shipper used by Amazon. The should NOT be trying to get rid of these on unsuspecting Amazon customers! Shame.

I use a Sharpie in the labeling area and it comes off after a good scrubbing with the bottle brush and soap. Alternatively, an ethanol wipe or a cotton ball dipped in rubbing alcohol also would remove the Sharpie markings.

Mine had glue residue that came off the first time I used it with heat, and it did so with a loud pop. Be careful. I would try low heat first.Putting the label on there was a terrible idea. Very nice pan, really bad decision to affix a sticky label to a nonstick surface.

I really wish they would invest in packaging for these labels!!!I was able to remove mine soaking in hit soapy water. Then scrubbing with a hand brush. Takes some elbow grease but it works. Kinda like cleaning the labels off a glass jar. Stuburn adheasive came off with a scotch Brite pad my wife uses on dishes.

I just received mine yesterday and unfortunately, the sticker was there. I tried scraping it off with my nail, but it seemed like I was just pushing the sticky residue around instead of removing it. SOLUTION: I ran the area where the sticky residue was under hot water; then, I scrubbed the residue off using an abrasive, soapy sponge. I was worried it would discolor the stainless steel, but it looks fine! Note: I'm not sure if this would work on the colored ones as it might scratch the enamel, but it might be worth a try!
