Bought this for removing a particular glue (the stuff on jar labels) and it's great. I keep finding things to use it for - in particular some Speedball adhesives (not sure the names, but the very nice ones that dry sticky) that I could never find a way to get off.I've tried a lot of similar products, and hate using them because they either leave an oily film that has to be washed, or have a horrible smell (you should avoid inhaling heptane, I'm sure, but most products either smell like gas or are scented, which is gross). This is apparently pretty pure heptane (not sure where to confirm that, the can doesn't say) so is clear, has no strong smell, and dries without leaving a noticeable residue (don't lick your hands or anything, but it's pretty clean).The only thing is, unlike some other adhesives removers, this just dissolves glue so that you can wipe it off. I put some on a paper towel, scrub the glue a bit, getting most of it off, and then repeat with a fresh towel to make sure it doesn't dry a little sticky.

Pros
  • No
Cons
  • May not be suitable for use on delicate fabrics or materials
