Is there a product you can recommend that would clean up the 3m tape residue when it's time to remove the protectors from furniture?

Hi Katrina, This is from the blog post "How to Install and Remove Furniture Guards" on our website at www (dot) mayapplebaby (dot) com:If glue residue remains on the wood surface, use your finger tip to rub a few drops of vegetable oil, such as olive oil, onto the wood and work in circles until glue comes loose; use a paper towel to remove any remaining tape or glue. You may have to repeat this a few times. For surfaces other than wood, you could try using rubbing alcohol (first check the guidelines of that particular surface). We do not recommend using alcohol on wood surfaces.A shorter version of this is can be found in the instructions included in the Safe Corner Cushion pack.Thank you,Mayapple Baby / Roving Cove Hi Katrina, This is from the blog post "How to Install and Remove Furniture Guards" on our website at www (dot) mayapplebaby (dot) com:If glue residue remains on the wood surface, use your finger tip to rub a few drops of vegetable oil, such as olive oil, onto the wood and work in circles until glue comes loose; use a paper towel to remove any remaining tape or glue.

I find the Goof Off to be too harsh. Goo Gone is the best for this! Good luck!

with this product they didn't even stick to my furniture to work so you should be ok. But honestly a wash clothing wet should get it off. Goof off works good too but may hurt your furniture

goo gone does work with a non scratch sponge-or Mr.clean magic erasers work as well--

Like the other customers I use Goo Gone to remove tape residue. However, I would test a hidden area before applying it anywhere visible. Also, you might try a dab of baby shampoo diluted with a tiny bit of water and gently, carefully try rubbing it off with a clean cloth. Again, test a hidden area first.

I used Goo Gone but watch how hard you rub. If you have wood veneer finish, it may take it off too.

Hello Katrina...I haven't personally used it but I was recommended to use "Goof-off"... You can find it at any home depot.I would suggest you try the product on hidden section of your furniture to ensure no damage is done to the furniture as you apply it.Sorry for the delayed reply and good luck.

I use a dry erase board eraser and then window cleaner to clean up any residue.

I was fortunate and didn't have any residue left. Try using a little goo gone. Don't really have anything to lose if you can't use it all sticky

Olive oil or a non-stick cooking spray should remove the glue residue on plastic furniture.

Use tape or a lint roller. I Don't like cleaning with acetone because I think it eats away the rubber.

I am not aware of the manufactuer's recommendations. However, I have had no problem but be sure to clean it with a cleaner that will remove the residue. A good dishwasher liquid will work.

I haven't had a problem. If there has been any residue (adhesive) I use a clorox wipes or a wet paper towel.

I removed the 3M clear film from the front of my Country Coach Motorhome. Left behind was a very difficult adhesive residue. I used 3M General Purpose Adhesive Cleaner to remove this adhesive residue. Just spray it on liberally and wipe off with a clean terry cloth. Lots of elbow grease so get ready.

Maybe olive oil...try to pry it away a little and let olive oil drip down on to the tape...I'm saying this because I have removed sticky tape from my fridge using this when nothing else worked..Good Luck !! Let me know if it helped

I used a product called Goo Gone, which is specially formulated to take off anything sticky. After that you have to clean the area with regular soap and water.

I would try some windex or some dish cleaner--- maybe even some eyeglass cleaner. Hope this helps!

I would remove it right away. I have a 2 young children and so got a good quality mattress protector. I didnt want to chance it.

I would use windex or glass cleaner or a liquid cleaner that won't melt plastic! Obviously, a scrubbing pad and powders like Comet or Ajax, etc. won't work.

It should get the grime off of the cabinets but if you have varnish you may likely need a stripper, then take krud kutter behind that to get any residue off.

Try a product by the name of "goof off" It should take the glue off and not damage the floor. Use alittle at a time

I used regular blue painter's tape when I masked off a table I covered. Worked really well - no tape residue was left behind. Try to make a dam with the tape as opposed to covering like you would if you were painting. In other words, have the tape meet the epoxy at a perpendicular angle, instead of just taping off like you would with paint. (The epoxy will decoupage anything under it.)

The solution used in the initial application of the protector can be used to clean it after removal with the same microfiber cloth provided with the kit. Keep them both after installation.
