HOMEMADE GOO GONE

This is another product I really like that is hard to afford. It takes off sticky labels, etc. It basically works to take anything sticky off of almost any item. This is the home made version, and it works! It does not have the same interesting orange scent...but if it's important to you, you could add a few drops of orange essential oil to the mix!

I saw this online and knew I had to keep this recipe safe. In case you're not familiar with Goo Gone, it's an oily liquid that's really helpful in getting rid of sticky residue (like getting a label off a jar) and can also be used for deeper cleaning where an oily grime or film has built up on a surface. It may seem contradictory to clean something sticky with an oil, but one of the basic tenets of chemistry - Like Dissolves Like.

Time 2m

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 2

1 teaspoon vegetable oil
2 teaspoons baking soda

Steps:

  • Combine the vegetable oil and the baking soda in a small bowl. It will be a somewhat thin mixture but not as thin as the real Goo Gone.
  • Dip the edge of a piece of paper toweling in the mixture and then rub over the sticky stuff you are trying to remove. Keep doing this as needed. It will probably take a couple applications, but it gets to a point where the sticky gunk starts releasing and rolling off.
  • Finish up by washing the item in warm soapy water.
  • This makes a small batch, but with using a ratio or one part vegetable oil with two parts baking soda, you may make as small or as large of a batch as you need.
