label removal

I have problems removing labels from the newer wine bottles, they don't just soak off anymore. What should I use? Walter the Grey


For some of the tougher labels, I soak them first in hot soapy water, and if the label doesn't come off I use Goo Gone. Darlene Wisconsin, USA

If soapy hot water doesn't work, use a hammer.

Ah, yes, for those extra hard labels which only come off if you break the bottle. lol Darlene

A similar product is Goof Off. Available at Home Depot.

In keeping with "men and boys, the difference being the size and price of their toys" I bought a bench grinder and replaced a stone with a wire brush. (This was after a hand grinder and a wire brush attachment)
