Hi,

Stupid question, but can anyone recommend a safe way to remove the sticky glue on the back of the membership card before I inadvertantly dissolve it! ;-)

Cheers,

Ian (Kent)

A drop of washing up liquid, rubbed in and then "fingernail" it off.

Then wipe off with a damp cloth.

Just done it, works a treat.

Lighter fluid is THE best solvent for sticky stuff, and will even get oil off Dralon ! ( used to be an upholsterer) WD40 ain't bad either... In fact 'the pros' ( myself included) use lighter fluid to clean the chip sensor surface on digital cameras.... Off topic but it's never out of stock at our house...

I use 98% alcohol cleaner or you can buy Sticky Stuff Remover.

Not sure how WD40 can be used as a cleaner as its a water dispersant isn't it?
