Yes some will work great with this method

After soaking off the paper label, make a paste of bicarbonate of soda and cooking oil , paint on and leave for 10 mins and wash.. it's miraculous...I had to do 200 bottles, so this was a God-send !!

What you just described is essentially soap! You've combined an alkalai and fat. Sometimes that's lye and lard, but it can be baking soda and oil - Generally, I believe it needs to be cooked, but all the same, it works. I only know this because I found it in the" Mr Wizards's Supermarket Science" book and made it with my kids when we were homeschooling.

I use olive oil to take off stubborn adhesive on glass jars too. What I do is I would soften the adhesive with my heat gun then pour some olive oil on a steel scrubbing pad and scrub in a circular motion. Afterwards wash it with soap and warm water

Citrus Magic works well and smells great. It also works well to remove black marks on your floor. 😊

To remove labels and sticky residue on glass, drop a few drops of Orange essential oil on label, let it sit for a minute, rub it in, and label comes off. Scouring pad could scratch the glass. Goo b gone also works great and is sold at Dollar Tree.

I use eucalyptus essential oil and it's very effective! Same method, a few drops rubbed into the sticky residue after the label is off, and wipes off with a paper towel. For very faint residue, I put a few drops directly onto a small square of paper towel and rub it off.

No desperdicies aceite de oliva ni manteca de maní que son caros, por lo menos en mi país... con una mezcla de aceite común y bicarbonato hacés una pasta lo aplicás sobre los residuos de pegamento lo dejás unos 20 minutos y luego lo quiás con esponja, casi siempre sale a la primera aplicación, si no repetir... sencillo y barato... y funciona perfecto...! Para las etiquetas dejo los frascos envueltos en trapo húmedo toda la noche, al día siguiente salen solas... casi todas jaja algunas son más resistentes🙂

I just found your channel. Your projects are so nice. I love all you do. What I really like about you is you explain things well can you use things that most people have on hand. Also, recipes for making your own paint, etc. I was wondering why you don't trim more of the paper off before you decoupage? I get closer to text. Does the straight lines/rectangular shape help you place it? I only have one negative thing to say, and maybe you've been told before, but my inner teacher must tell you that you're pronouncing decoupage incorrectly. It is "day" not "dec".

Love your ideas 😊
