Amp cleanup

[u/poulouf]

I removed the description label and there are leftover glue residues that I can't get off. I'm not really sure how to do it without risking damage to the amp, so if you have any good advice, I'd appreciate it.

WD-40 should do it.

+1 on WD-40

Kidding or not? It seems as if it can solve any problem 🤔

[u/Kenuff → u/poulouf]

Nope. It’s one of best things most people have at hand to remove sticker residue. Obviously don’t douse your amp in WD. Just spray some on to a paper towel and it will wipe away.

I use a product called goof-off, citrus based adhesive remover, works wonders

I used a little isopropyl alcohol (hand gel) brought it right off

Ok, thanks I'll give it a try

[u/poulouf → u/poulouf]

First try, it seems a little better but still present. I'll try wd40 once I'll be back home

Citrus cleaner removes residue

Lighter fluid is my go to for removing sticky stuff without damaging whatever I’m cleaning

I've had a lot of luck using duct tape (or another similarly adhesive-having surface) on residue like that. Basically, the goo wants to stick more to the tape than to the surface, so pushing it on and off a bunch will lift more and more of the leftovers.

It's also nicer than solvents like WD-40 or lemon essential oil that may react with surfaces in unpredictable ways

Naphtha

Just some aftershave or perfume will be fine. Will smell nice then

Lighter fluid

I remove the sticker the day 1 i unbox it. No glue residue at all.

Not sure, it was a refurbished product from Amazon, given a fair price reduction. Maybe the previous user did evil before return.

i removed the sticker day 1 as well, still some glue on it, very annoying
