Use warm water and dish soap. “Stick the shirt in the freezer for an hour to harden the glue,” says Gwen Whiting, a cofounder of The Laundress. “Pick off what you can, then wet the shirt and rub it with a microfiber cloth and a little dish soap to remove any residue.

Personally, dawn dish soap works wonders if used properly.

Answer:

1. First, dip a white rag or cotton ball in rubbing alcohol.

2. Then, rub the sticker with the rag or cotton ball.

3. After sufficiently wetting the sticker area, peel it off!

4. Rub the area a bit more to remove all sticker residue.

5. Finally, rewash the clothing item.
