▼ Questions & Answers ▼
Q) Why don't you just heat it up with a hair dryer and remove it?
A) I tried this and it works for some stickers but no the Microsoft plastic security stickers. I guess different stickers and adhesives have different ways that remove them best. A few people have recommended trying WD-40 for instance and one person said to use 'orange oil'. I might have to try out these other methods and have a shootout!

This is still a fantastic way to remove stickers from just about anything. I also found that using one of those clothing steamers works just as well and is more portable and you can find them at garage sales since nobody ever uses them more then once or twice. I also live stream daily on twitch.tv/barnacules so come hang out with me live and ask me anything.
I’m glad to see that they didn’t patch it
So Steam works with Xbox 360 games now? That's great news!
Lol
Mobile won't let me up vote this.
Also n64 when did that get an software update
I wonder why Jerry didn't PUN this
hahahahaha!!! OMG this... hahahaha~~~ xD
I find these Microsoft Employee stickers all the time in Seattle! This info is GOLD Jerry. Thanks!
Goo gone works wonders
You sir are welcome, feel free to talk about the method in a future video if the topic comes up.
METALJESUSROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I usually just peel off the label , or tear off the plastic cover and then spray a laber remover on it , that works pretty fast and without mess since it remove the glue residue too
Please do a video on your attempts. That would really benefit the subscribers of your channel
My barista asked me why I brought all my gears of War games
did they let you do it
I don't think he actually did that lol
You exepct me to have a motherfucking espresso machine? why not something more common like an iron.
Who the fuck has an iron?
What do you mean? you dont mean to tell me that an espresso machine is more common then an iron ?
^^^This guy. smh.
what is an 'iron"???
erm ... "flat-" or "smoothing-" iron
just saying
i was like, 200 C? You serious, thats god damn hot. Than I realised it's in F. Man why doesn't everyone use the same Units
So true.
Fucken Americans, get with the system
Didn't Carter introduce the metric system?! I guess that someone forgot to tell the schollboards
I'm not implying one sytem to be superieor to the other.
I just want everybody to get their shit together,
and use the same system. But like almost everybody uses the SE Units, so why not everybody, and not just almost
same reason we call football soccer and use 12hr format clock
it's easy folks all you need is a 1500$ expresso machine
You just need any source of steam.. I did it with a clothes steamer and it worked just as well.
Jake Crowley Well of course. But it was just funny the way he said it.
just use WD 40
I have a steam machine (don't know the actual name in english) that's like 30 bucks on amazon, and it does a good job at steaming away dirt and stuff like this. I assume it would work just fine for Jerry's project :)
Cool, can it run minecraft?
Okay so what if you don't have an expresso machine
heat gun, hair blower, soak them in hot water.
I would ask someone at a starbucks lol.
DEMAND the use of a Expresso machine at your local Starbucks! The barista won't mind ;)
Exactly what I was thinking and if you have the money for one why are you buying a used game?
I generally just use a hair dryer to heat up the adhesive on the sticker, generally it doesn't leave the adhesive behind either.
Great, all I need is a $500 espresso machine!
"Just open the sulophane, nice and easy slide her right in" I died xD
at 5:03
He didn't do his normal "ladies..."
cellophane
+Michael Haney yeah, lol. I think barnacules missed that one...
You don't get out much do you?
For the harder stickers just apply goo gone to them and lit them soak it in for a while, and afterwards just try using the steam method. :)
goo gone does not work on microsoft emploee stickers sadly
Then try Goof Off. It was designed for superglue, road tar, and all the other insane adhesives.
Damn! My suggestion was d-Limonene. That may not work as it's the "active" ingredient in Goo Gone, IIRC. That being said, Goo Gone also contains more filler agents though (d-Limonene is expensive), so the pure solvent may still be worth a try. Conversely, Goo Gone also contains wetting agents to make the d-Limone and other chemicals more effective.
I'd still say d-Limonene is worth a shot if you really want to get those stickers off the carts. I'm sure toluene or other strong solvents would work too, but it's more likely they'd melt the plastic casing (depending on the type of plastic).
Because every house has espresso machine. Just use a hairdryer to heat the sticker then gently pull up at an angle while heating with the hairdryer again as you go.
If you have any residue left over use a citrus cleaner or Bestine to remove. I've removed Microsoft stickers, Gamestop stickers, even rental store "silver void if removed" stickers without tripping the void feature this way.
Bestine will also remove permanent marker from cartridge labels without damaging them. This works even on the N64 labels that didn't have the high gloss on them.
Ha! Well done! I consider myself an expert in this field and I've never thought of this technique, those Microsoft Store stickers are a nightmare...
Wd40 removes nearly all glues spray round the edge,for the realy shiny coated ones gently score the surface then spray leave to soak in for 5-10 mins peal off sticker wipe any remaining wd40 off. It also works for old sellotape or sticky remnants from old labels.
Wow, I thought people recommending this were just bullshitting. I have to try this now!
+Barnacules Nerdgasm I use the wd40 trick most days in my job it doesn't damage paint or plastics like solvents can. It seems to dissolve or breakdown the glue to the point where it will wipe off. :)
+Robert Clay if you think wd40 is only good for unsticking they have a list of over 2000 uses including using the can to wedge a window open ;p
wd40.com/files/wd40-2000.pdf
any oil really
The only thing you want to be careful of is car paint - the WD40 will strip the wax off the paint which will leave it vulnerable to scratches and sun fading.
no one will care if madden games get destroyed
I know right! :D
barn have you tried goo gone
Hell,no one wants the previous versions,I do not think even Game Stop likes seeing them.
The older madden games are awesome! 2002-2009 for Original Xbox!
Nothing grinds my gears more than when a CZcams creator says "linked in the description." and it's not linked in the description.
What did I forget?
Sorry senpai, but 1:14 re: your expresso maker. Thank you.
Rather than steam, a lot of us in the retro community use bestine. It's great for removing stickers from cardboard boxes without damaging the box. It works by making the sticker "not sticky" for a bit, then a few moments later, the sticker becomes sticky again, so you can save the sticker. It's great if you want to remove rental stickers from carts or manuals and scrap book them so you have a log of where they have been. un*do is a product you can buy at walmart wich is mostly bestine if you want to try it, but 4 oz of it costs as much as 32 oz of bestine on amazon.
Remove residue using Goo Gone or WD40.
Try using a hair dryer
I do the same with a small travel hair dryer set too low(found it in a GoodWill for $3), and for me that works most of the time.
Hairdryers are used all the time to melt adhesives when installing skins and things. If this method still left residue might as well try a hairdryer too.
How to remove stickers with Steam:
1. Launch CS:GO.
2. Click on a skin.
3. Press "scrape sticker"
4. Just keep pressing on the stickers until it comes off.
Warning: once it is scratched, it cannot go back.
So I need to purchase a $1000 expresso machine to remove stickers from my now $10 video games? #poorpeopleproblems
Yeah and if you can afford one of why on earth are you buying used games? XD
Apparently I am so poor, I can't even spell espresso correctly.
just use any type of steam, or a blow dryer, etc.
There's way cheaper one's than that which can be used... There's also plenty of other options/alternatives to do something similar to this.
AFX Gaming lmao i didnt even notice he spelled it wrong until you corrected him
Microsoft is so scummy that even their stickers don't come off easily... -.-
better than apple and unfortunately linux hasn't been widely adopted for personal computing(yes I wrote the acronym out for people who will give me trouble about a PC being windows even though that's not what it is.)
Everything from Microsoft is a disaster waiting to happen.
Mac Guy3135 Is that why my computer is on fire?
I'm a retro game collector so I know all about stickers and stuff. If you have any left over adhesive on your item, just use a bit of "goo gone" and it'll come straight off, clean the area very nicely, and make it smell good!
"You'd be surprised about how little water comes out of these machines... At least the one I'm using." *AS HE THEN PROCEEDS TO HAVE A DRIPPING CARTRIDGE IN HIS HAND!*
eucalyptus oil is good for getting rid of sticker residue
but then you'll always have that smell coming off of that case
+Siddharth Nair but it's a nice smell
Damn, games with those stickers actually have some extra value! Shame you removed them ;_;
Dude I'm pretty sure nobody cares about those dumb GameStop stickers 🙄😑 plus they're nothing but a pain to off anyways 😠😡
@@ClassicGamer9044 they're microsoft stickers and they actually do add value.
I usually just use a hairdryer to remove stickers. Heat up the sticker, when it's hot enough(like 10 to 30 seconds seconds depending on the strength of the hairdryer), you should be able to peel it off with your fingers(don't cut your fingernails before doing this, or it will be a pain in the butt)
Work just the same as this and pretty much everyone has one. It also leaves a thin sticky layer afterward that you have to clean up. Heat is a known way to remove stickers. Just be careful not to apply too much heat on one area, it may warp the plastic. May or may not work on all type of glue.
This is the same way I open envelopes addressed to other people. They seal back together perfectly after you've read the mail.
I've been trying to find a good method to remove labels from bottles of Sailor Jerry rum (I collect the pinups on the back of the label) and this is by far the best method I've found so far. Seems like they make them differently than they used to though, I think they used to be only on paper, this peeled the paper off to reveal a plastic sheet underneath. The steam peeled both off pretty effortlessly. I don't drink coffee, but I tried my old jiggler type pressure cooker and it worked great.
Awesome!
Hey in your case you could just fill the bottles with boiling hot water, wait a couple minute for the glue to heat up, and then peel them right off.
How much does Valve pay you to do promotion for Steam ?
At work, whenever I'm dealing with adhesives (particularly 3M's strongest adhesives), I use DiLimonene to dissolve the adhesive and it works extremely well. Essentially, it just makes the adhesive gel up and you can just brush it off afterwards.
There is actually a more efficient and less messy way to remove stickers or labels from boxes. Use a Heat Gun or Blow Dryer. (If using Blow Dryer, use the hottest setting). I used to do this everyday when I worked in a shipping department a while back. Simply heat the label up with blow dryer for about 30 secs or so, and then slowly peel off the sticker. Point is to heat the glue so the sticker can easily peel off. If there is any sticky residue, use peanut butter and rub it into the residue, and let it set for 5 minutes, then wipe it off. The oil in the peanut butter breaks down the sticky residue, and will make it easy to wipe off. Then you can use rubbing alcohol to remove any excess oil residue.
it's wcw/nwo REVENGE!!! and in my workplace we use something called Cut-thru works great on asphalt and I've also used it to remove a decal from my car window. wouldn't put it on the paint though. have also heard it helps clean headlights.
we also use it to remove labels from plastic buckets, metal buckets, 55 gallon drums, you name it.
You can also just use googon
Agree. Apply Goo-Gone to a stubborn sticker and let it dwell for awhile. It will soften the sticker adhesive so that traditional (or steam) methods can be used to remove the sticker.
+Tyberiuss OCD still doesn't work on some security stickers, I ran into this a few times at my last job where a lot of our business customers would buy used equipment from another company, specifically warranty and asset stickers. That stuff is like rubber cemented on. There are solvents for it but most of them eat through plastics and paint as well.
for the labels that won't come off go hotter possibly use hydrocloric acid (put in pan medium heat so it just bubbles and you'll get a layer of acid gas that is heavier than air (may ruin pan I don't know)) heat is the enemy of adhesives hydrocloric acid (or another acid) will bind with the adhesive you'll have to play with various acids to find one that works for you
Thank you Jerry for makeing videos again
money must be tight if you have to remove the stickers on old games to resell them
Wow that worked out perfectly on the "Microsoft employee stickers". Usually the all plastic stickers are really hard to remove! The ones that are more paper based are usually really easy to remove with a wet cloth with either water or alcohol, but those plastic ones are usually a pain :D Thank for the video Jerry! I have a couple game boxes I want to try this on to remove the stickers :D
Wow this channel is really thriving... Def needed a 10k PC from pusher for this video
I've used AvE's teflon knife method to great effect. You can get a small square of PTFE plastic off of amazon, file it down to an edge, and it'll slide under most stickers. Not nearly as fast, but good when steam/water isn't handy or if it'll ruin what's underneath.
how to remove stickers............buy your games on Steam like a normal person.
You can't if it's on console , you are really Donald trump
didn't he just use steam? :/
+James Blakey- Virtual Machines you realize to can buy games digitally on console too right
+James Blakey- Virtual Machines I think it depends on the console, I remember reading somewhere about how to run Steam on a PS3
Add me on steam donald trump, IMadeYouReadThis look for a diamond profile picture I'm in Sydney
I like how he said "With nothing but an expresso machine". like everybody owns a expresso machine lol.
Found out that if you are VERY careful with stickers on cart labels, or if you just want it to sit on DVD like cases, use Mineral Spirits. Might have to let those tricky ones to soak for a while, but the cartridges, its more of a last chance type of thing
If you want a tip, using WD40 multi-purpose oil removes sticker and duck tape glue extremely easily (much quicker and less messy than alcohol). You just pour a bit of that to soak the glue and rub with a paper. It comes out in seconds. Then you can dry it off with paper again and it looks and feels like new.
That's to expensive, I don't have access to such a machine, but I can achieve the same result on my plastic game cases with nothing more than my nails, a rubber eraser, water, paper towel, and a few minutes.
1. Remove the sticker with nails, don't worry if it rips, just remove it.
2. Use rubber eraser on the sticky parts, as you rub it, it will start to come off.
3. once all stickiness has been removed use a moist paper towel to remove the rubber marks from the plastic cover, then dry it.
4. take your time and be careful not to damage the plastic case.
Simple as that, I've done it so many times to my game cases, crappy stickers that rip, or leave residue, but after my steps the case is good as new with no stickers or crappy residue.
Glad to see other OCD people like me who hate stickers on game cases XD
I think it's safe to say jerry is back for good now:d
I just find that using a dish scrubber(like a sponge with the rough side) wet a little bit works wonders as well. You just have to be gentle when doing it so you don't damage the label.
"Not only does it give you steam, but steam UNDER PRESSURE".....dun dun dun dudu dun dun
For those really tough Microsoft labels, just preheat a fan forced oven to 370 and leave in overnight. If you can smell burning plastic, it just means the glue is de-activating. It works, I promise...
I was like:"Uuuuum, I'm pretty sure STEAM doesn't cover this...ooooooooooh!"
Sarcasm intended.
I have had tons of success using a hair dryer (short direct bursts just to heat up the adhesive) and goo gone to cleanup any left over mess. I just did a dozen games tonight and they look awesome!
Eucalyptus oil. I just use use Eucalyptus oil. Takes all stickers off - destroys the glue, with half zero effort.
Lighter fluid works really well for taking stickers off as well and could be used for the residue.
That's really cool and I can't wait for some more unboxing videos!!
In the meantime, Mrs Barnacules is wondering where the hell the coffee is she asked for some considerable time ago.
thanks for the video Jerry! perfect timing because I had nothing to watch.
Oh sure! Let me just go get my espresso machine...oh Jerry :)
Kool Jerry. Thanks for the video. Now I have to find me one of those coffee machines.
Wow, I find it funny that this was just posted. I was thinking about those microsoft stickers yesterday. Thanks for the video!
Why is this episode JerryRigged, when you are not using hot glue gun ? :D
"Nothing but an espresso machine," I don't know about you, but I don't think that's something everyone has laying around.
Did you try a product called 'Goo Gone". I have used that to break down the adhesive on plastic many times. I have not tried it with the particular labels you have.
You can try an acetone-based cleaning fluid (nail-polish remover, for example) on the stubborn stickers. If they used a cyano-acrylate glue (i.e. some kind of "super-glue") then that will soften the adhesive.
Those labels have been my bane! How much warping/distortion did you get in the transparent plastic layer on the case? Does it bother you?
3M Sticker Remover + Car wax (not the spray type) + WD-40 + Isopropyl alcohol works in some cases, though 3M sticker remover is quite aggressive against plastics, so omit that if you can't replace the package in any way.
all you need is a $1000 espresso machine lol
Step 1 - take literally everything off
Step 2- submerge all labelled games in boiling water
Step 3- Watch as the labels dissapear.
I cant wait till I can afford my own espresso machine :) I love you jerry
"Have you tried mineral oil to remove those labels?"
I have a sealed copy of Windows XP with a Microsoft Company Store sticker, will this method risk damaging the packaging? This is one of few things that I care about having that evil sticker removed from. I have a certain attachment to that project.
Great JerryRigged episode with more useful information. Quick Question, can you use this method to remove security alarms on cases, like the one that can be seen at 8:22? Those things are damn near impossible to remove without leaving residue or breaking apart. Thanks.
I already saw the house tours but I imagine you see nice machines literally everywhere in Jerry's house. Espresso machines, GPU's, consoles, games lying around etc It's a techiewonderland
Goo-Gone is great to remove gunk and stickers from things. Its pretty cheap and easy to use. The only thing is it is kind of oily. But that can be cleaned off most of the time.
In the past, after removing labels I used to have the glue residue still stuck on there. I used nail varnish remover and it did the trick for me as an alternative to the alcohol method.
Also where did you get the castlevania remix music from that you used in this video?
I've heard you can use some kind of lemon sprayto get rid of the adhesive but that may only work after you've removed the stickers.
I guess you found the upload button again in the last week :P Not trying to hate but u did not upload very often untill now love it! :D
I always loved your Jerry rigged video's.
Keep up the great work
What great luck! I have that exact Breville! One tip I can give you in exchange.. Did you ever make a coffee (espresso/Cap/Latte) and something happens and it cools off before you have a chance to drink it? Microwaves can often empathy evil while reheating (That's the scientific phrase) lol.
I find that using the steam want to carefully reheat the beverage is very effective and it doesn't break down the ingredients like the (evil) Microwave would.
Cheers!

"With nothin' but a [$1200] espresso machine."
Just as an FYI (it's really not important) but that 200 degrees on the screen is not the temperature of the steam its actually the temperature of the coffee boiler. that machine has two boilers one for coffee and one for steam and the steam one will be much much hotter than 200F
If you can't remove the stickers with chemicals or steam. And if finding the correct replacement case is too hard or costly. What about replacing the actual plastic cover with plastic sheeting??
Would it help to lift the label slightly with a small flathead screwdriver or something and then use steam?
Sticker glue comes right off with hexane, and it doesn't do anything to the plastic. Works way better than isopropanol for this. I use it all the time. You can even soak a paper towel, lay it flat on the sticker let it soak in to the sticker (if it is made out of paper), and it will eventually start sliding around when you push on it, and then it peels right off. Then wipe the goo off. :D
Move over Mr. Wizard! Barnacules is in the house
Yeah lemme just go fire up my espresso machine real quick...
Have you tried Goo Gone? That works great for removing stubborn stickers and their adhesives.
My favorite part was the coffee comment at the end. :)
I missed the Jerry rigged videos :) It's been a while :)
Jerry, did you try acetone or lighter fluid for the purpose of removing the stickers?
Great idea. Goo-Gone works great too. If i remember right, it's a few bucks cheaper than an espresso machine too.
Partially removed paper-like stickers, can be removed with Akasa TIM clean, a citrus based solvent. It smells nice too!
Why are those "Not for Sale" stickers on the game case anyways? Do you get them at WAY below market MSRP?
Nothing but an espresso machine? Well glad I have one of those laying around.
I've got a clear blockbuster sticker over my conkers bad fur day cartridge but it covers the entire art and starts over the edge of the art. Any suggestions? If u try to peal the sticker it tears the label.
When are the shirts coming back in stock? I tried to buy a large and it was out. Keep up the great work 😃
quick tip bro. Zippo or Ronsonol lighter fluid makes quick work of any sticker or adhesive. but that worked great
If it is like most adhesives just wait 50 years. Or accelerate the aging with temperature swings. I suppose vibrations could loosen it up a bit. And something citrus might dissolve it. Just a guess. Anything more than that might damage the item more than the label.
Genesis cartridge! Jerry, I'm officially in love with you.. I'm not the only one that kept his Sega shit
GREAT IDEA!!! Thx for sharing! (I aways wanted to remove stickers from lots of places)
Have you tried heating isopropyl alcohol in a pan and treating the sticker with "alcohol steam"?
I don't drink coffee, but I guess I need an espresso machine anyway :D
