Removing Stickers

[HRC99]

Anyone got any tips for removing stickers and the adhesive? I want to take the bloody price tag of my hybrids and putter and can't get it all off. Grrr!

White spirit.

I use hot water and fairy liquid then just peel it off with your fingers or rub a scrubbing brush over them.

Spray on wood polish like pledge or the best stuff if it's really stubbon is 3M Adhesive Removr, which incidently is awesome in bringing up stainless steel to a gleaming shine.

Use a hair dryer it'll soften the glue enough so that it wont leave any on the club.......Just make sure you heat it enough as if its not warm enough it'll only come off in little pieces....

If you haven't got any white spirit to hand, a rag dabbed (not doused) with petrol and rubbed over the offending glue will remove every single trace.
Note. Do not light up a fag whilst doing this.
Hope that helps

I use the wifes nail vanish remover or soap and water does the job on the plastic type ones.

Excessive heat will damage a graphite shaft. Ok on steel though, as long as it is not near the hozel, when it will melt the glue that holds the head on.

That should be in the post GUILTY PLEASURES.

Re: Removing Stickers

Buy a spray can of sticker remover - I've had one for >5 years, and its still got loads left. Perfect for golf club price tags, or anything that leaves a gluey residue...

WD40 or any light machine oil will remove stickers and residual glue.

Also gives your clubs a manly smell .......

Re: Removing Stickers

Just be careful using nail varnish remover or acetone as prolonged exposure can damage the laquer and coating on the shaft and also break down the resins
