How to remove clear sticky Adhesive from shower wall|
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 лют 2022
- I've waited about a year to try and remove this adhesive, after endless searching and unsuccessfully finding a solution I decided to take the job in my own hands.
I almost gave up because the project took so long but we must work hard for what we want In life!
I hope you find this video informative and it helps you solve your problem. let me know down in the comment section how this video helped
I got got mine done in 30 mins or less. I put my shower on hot and let the steam heat up and keep the adhesive wet which made it easy to peal off and used a icing spatula to get between the adhesive and the wall. Worked like a charm with barely any adhesive stuck on the pall to peel off.
I used your technique and it worked! Thank you, thank you, thank you! I thought it would NEVER come off. Plus there was no staining or anything!!!!! THANK YOU AGAIN! ❤️
You did a great job. I'm an apartment maintenance guy and have been for a long time. These past few years these things have been popping up far too often and you are absolutely correct that it takes hours of painful work. I've actually scraped the glaze off of the tile using a heat gun and putty knife. Maybe I'll try the butter knife next time.
After fighting with one for hours, I researched and found this. It took me less than 5 minutes to get it off with this technique. Thank you thank you!! You're a lifesaver
You're really thorough and good at making these instructions! That's so much! I'm blow-drying right now!
Currently trying your method and it works! The only differences I’ve done are 1: I’m using a plastic putty knife instead of the butter knife. And 2: I’ve found that heating it up is actually what’s making the sticky stuff stick to the wall. So what I’m doing is heating up enough of one side that it allows me to pull the rest off. I’m only left with a little sticky instead of a lot. Hope this helps anyone as well!
Thank you SO much for the hair dryer info! Helped me a lot!!
thank you so much for making this video!! im moving out in a few days and have had such a hard time removing these omg
Goo gone and also I have learned with stickiness, if you use the other sticky parts to help remove the rest of it helps. Basically rolling the sticky parts and using that sticky part to pick up the other sticky parts. If that makes any sense at all. Your video helped a ton. Thanks. I didn’t know where to start. I just had to remove sticky backing off regular wall recently using the finger method. I still need to tackle the bathroom and now I know how because of your video. Thanks so much.
Despite all of this, your bathroom tiles are very clean!!! Well done young lady!
Oh. My. GODDD. I have the exact same shelves and i have tried EVERYTHING and was looking everywhere for help. BLESS YOUU SO MUCH FOR MAKING THIS!! 😂🙏🙏🙏🙏❤
Omg. I'm moving out of my apartment next week and this shit was STUCK.
Thank you! It literally took me like 20 mins. I def have a few blisters on my thumbs but that's a small price to pay when it could have been a ton of money in "damages" from my apartment
Thank you so much! I had been redoing my 1950’s bathroom and bought some and of course I placed it crooked, it worked great
Thank you , love ! ♥️ Came out in seconds ! You are a genius and so helpfull !
THANK YOUUUU, this was beyond helpful and I’m so grateful that you made this video! Def gonna subscribe 💕
your video helped me so much. Thank you for that!
This video was VERY helpful. Your method worked out perfectly. I did exactly what you did and with some effort, got my walls cleared again. Keep up the great work!
Woohoo congrats, so happy that it worked for you!
You have no idea how excited I was to find this video
I'm glad that I could be a help to you, thanks for watching 🙂.
This was very helpful! Thank you!
You are a life saver thank you so much!!
Thank you so much, this worked perfectly!
I used rubbing alcohol and a putty knife on mine and it came off in less than 1 hour with no damage to the tile.
That's good to know, I didn't have a putty knife, I'm sure it's a lot safer than a butter knife 🔪
I started with the blow dryer, but came to the comments because I was stress with how long it was taking. I tried rubbing alcohol and it worked like a charm, thank you for the tip.
Thank you , I used your hack and it worked
Thank you for this tip worked like a charm for me!!
Do i soak it with alcohol and wait to dry out or start scraping it while its soaked in rubbing alcohol?
Thanks girly! Life saver. Took me about 30 min to get two sections off.
You saved my daughter alot of time, never thought of the hairdryer ❤
Thank you so much! It worked!!!
This is a really good method. I actually stuck these to drywall and removed by pouring alcohol on it. I was done in under 30 mins
The way you articulate your words to instruct your viewers is very satisfying. 😘 Seriously though, well done,
You're welcome, I'm thrilled to have helped you. Thank you for the feedback! 💕
I moving out of my dorm and I could not figure out how to get mine off my shower wall. This method worked thank you so much! 😭
The blow dryer and a flat head screwdriver worked great for me to get off the plastic mount. To get rid of all the residual glue in less that five minutes, I put lots of rubbing alcohol on the residual glue tike software and quickly scraped it all off using the flat head screw driver. I kept reapplying rubbing alcohol to it as I went along.
Thank you!!! Your video is exactly what I needed and was looking for!!!!
Thank you for the details, I'm so glad that this was helpful for you.
Wow finally got round to doing this and it worked a treat. No residue it took about 5mins to wack it off no butter knife needed and very little residue. I only had one soap holder to remove. But thanks who new a hairdryer had other uses.
People like you are the real heroes! Thank you so much for sharing 💕
Thank you for your support 🙌
I'm in this process now. This is so very true. The only difference is I used the claw end of a hammer instead of a butter knife. Great advise.
Great help!
Isopropyl alcohol. Use hard plastic adhesive remove. Create an opening the edges. Try peeling upwards and toward the hardest portion where the hooks are located. This creates leverage and can easily release the rest of the adhesive.
Great video, thanks so much for posting!! I just had to do this for 3 year old shower shelves and GIRL... let me tell it was a struggle at first. The heat gun did not work for me unfortunately, so....FOR ANYONE ELSE WHO THE HEAT GUN DOES NOT WORK FOR/ A GREAT ALTERNATIVE METHOD:
1. You'll need 2 people, a spray bottle, rubbing alcohol (70% or higher), and a putty knife (pair of pliers optional for grip)
2. Start at the corner of the adhesive piece. One person will hold the spray bottle full of rubbing alcohol and the other the putty knife.
3. Spray the corner with a bit of rubbing alcohol while SIMULTANEOUSLY wiggling the putty knife BEHIND the adhesive and the plastic. This piece is super important because if you start off ensuring that the putty knife is behind BOTH the plastic AND the adhesive, this method will work to remove it all it one piece and absolutely NO RESIDUE will be left behind AT ALL
4. Once you have a sizeable enough corner off that you can either pull with your fingertips or a pair of pliers (pliers for better grip cause the alcohol makes everything slippery) one person will continue to spray the alcohol while the other GENTLY AND SLOWLY pull the piece off. You may have to stop and get a different grip when you get to the part where the hook is cause it's a thicker plastic, but as long as you pull it little by little and constantly spray the alcohol, it will come off COMPLETELY CLEAN, no residue at all to deal with!
--With this method we were able to remove 3 strips in under 10 minutes with no residue left behind! It took over two hours for the first gun trying the heat gun method and goo gone and it did not work and still left a sticky mess that we had to go back and use the rubbing alcohol and putty knife to get off.
Sorry for the super long comment but after going through this I really wanted to let anyone looking for this info know cause it really was a GAME CHANGER for us and kept my security deposit intact!!
May God bless every single person that reads this! Accept Jesus today if you haven't already, He loves you no matter what, seriously!!!
Thanks for this post. Helped so much. I'd add to use 91% alcohol and a tile/glass scraper. My husband tried different plastic scrapers, razors, and knives. But the game changer was switching to the tile and glass scraper! And applying the alcohol then scrape technique, small sections at a time.
@berlindablanc3399 that's a great addition, so glad it worked for you!!
Great Video !
Thanks for the very helpful video!
I would like to add 2 additional tips from my experience…
if you are feeling pain scratching hard with the butter knife, put the Oven Mitts to reduce pain..
also for the last painful part of scratching off tiny stick parts, the stainless steel scrubber works like a charm!
Thanks for the butter knife idea. No blow dryer needed
I literally have the opposite problem. I can get them to stay on. I can’t believe how well stuck they are to your tile. Thank you for sharing this video! ❤
Is the area dry? 🤔
Thank you. I'm going to try using the butter knife with the hair dryer. My fingers hurt now. I'm going to take my time doing this.
I just used my thumb and rubbed the sticky residue off. Keep rolling it into a clump until it rolls right off the wall. Heat it up with the blow dryer and it comes right off.
Let your cleaning deposit be your motivation! You read my mind! 😄😄😄
Dang.... this was so helpful - thank you
I'm so glad that I could be a help to you!
Very helpful video. We just moved my daughter out of her dorm apartment. I boiled water and put it in an empty gallon container and poured it on the tile wall which worked ok too.
Oh wow I never would have thought of that, Great thinking!
Pleaseeeee girlllll thank you for thisss bc fr
Worked fantastic. butter knife did the job. Even better than a razor scraper. Thank you so much for your help!
You're very welcome!!! Thank you for the comment and helping my algorithm ❤️
your technique is cool, I'd use a puttin g knife and the blow dryer and nail polish remover also called acetone.
to get rid of the left over residue.
I’m a maintenance technician at an apartment complex. We made It against the policy for people to put these on the shower or tile because it takes so long to get off.
Well then you should find a solution for people to organize their products then.
@@MelanineQueen98Yeah like why is it that places you are supposed to rent never have freaking storage space for the people who actually live there 😭😭😭😭
Thank You very much for your excellent suggestion Abbie, it really worked for me, I also followed Alan Rackson (below) suggestion of using 91% rubbing alcohol to remove the residue, it worked perfectly for my 2"x3" ceramic tile area-Total for both 25-30 minutes-THANKS A LOT
A thousand thank your. This was great information. I will never use them again on tile
You're so welcome, join the club, never again!!!
I actually used my blow dryer with a plastic knife and it worked really well surprisingly. This video saved me !
Brilliant, I bet plastic is safer than a regular butter knife too!
Thank you girl for this video I made my life easier.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you! This method worked for me!
That's awesome, I truly appreciate your feedback! You're very welcome 😁
Thank you for this video. You can also try to use 91% alcohol it also removes glue and the alcohol works on multiple surfaces like removing price stickers off glass.
Do i soak it with rubbing alcohol first then scrape it off or dry it out first? How exactly did u do it?
Thanks very much!! I used the rolling from the edge technique using my thumb and it worked like a charm. That rubber adhesive is evil!!
😂 I hear you there lol, I'm so happy that it worked for you!
Many thanks
This is clear concise and helpful. I now have to buy a hair dryer I've never owned one but will now thanks
Great, I'm glad to be a help to you. You could probably even borrow one from someone you know. Good luck 😃
@@Abbiehousediy yeah could do that thanks.
Girl, you save my life lol thank you 🎉 I tried the butter knife. I couldn't find my blow dryer
Woohoo, congratulations, I am so happy that it worked out for you!!
Thank you so much girllll omg. I want my 2k back bessbelieve
Oh thank god I found this video, I've been pulling for days🤦♀️
Eucalyptus oil would help with final cleaning of the tile
Thanks I will try this!
Did it work?
Mannn. I need that adhesive part removed asap! Like 2 days 😒
Thank you!
You're so welcome, thank you for the feedback!
Thank you for making a miserable chore fun. The hammer scene is great. 😉 ❤
You are so welcome! Comments like this push me to keep making videos, thank you 😊❤️
Hey I liked how you were absolutely real about the struggle. But I am too curious to know what did you put up instead of those racks? I am about to put up something like that and after seeing this video I don't want to.
First I want to thank you for your feedback and really appreciate it.
I now use the hanging shower caddy because you can just hang it on your shower head. They don't require any suction/sticky substance aka renter friendly.
Look up these items, I believe they will help you! 🥰 :
"tension rod shower caddy"
"Hanging shower caddy"
The best way to clean mold at home, wear gloves, use a terry cloth, CLR spray or bleach, fold the towel and use every clean side, put towel in a trash bag and get another towel. DO NOT WASH/REUSE the towels throw them away and do not let any air out of the garbage bag, get the garbage bag out of your home.
Thank you for letting me know! I will keep this in my notes for the future 💕
I bought a house where they left the adhesive, but not the shelving for it, LOL! Gonna try this... :)
I've been dragging my feet on this lil project. 😂 Finally got the plastic pieces with hooks off. Now I'm removing the leftover sticky crap, and I'm here to say that NAIL POLISH REMOVER helps!!! I was careful at first, now I'm doing a combo of nail polish remover, waiting, then rubbing that stuff off with a towel / my fingers. I plan to finish this month. 😂
😄 lovely thanks
You're very welcome!
The renters will be so happy to have a clean house. My landlord just dont gaf about it so i have to clean the apartment myself
I just finished this process and my fingers are done. There was blood from one nail and skin bunching on the same finger. They will be returned. The first set I had came off much easier. Most of the sticky stuff was still on the back of the plastic but this 2nd set, which was cheaper, most of the sticky was left on the tile. The sad part is there is one more I’ll have to remove before I move but good thing that’s no time soon. 😬 And this new corner set will probably get returned. Whew!! Way too much work to remove.
I tell you...
For something so cute and simple, it sure is hard to get off!
I pray the last one doesn't give you a hard time. Someone in my comment section mentioned using boiling water...
Maybe you can safely try that?
Acetone works
Unfortunately, the adhesive in my shower is not one big piece, but broken pieces on the wall...
Dang, I’ve been renting my apartment for 2 years and got a bunch of adhesive stuff, thinking I could remove it all moving out… that’s not the case, this has been a struggle not to damage anything…
Facts, I feel that no one really thinks of the take down and what kind of trouble we may run into while moving out.
It extremely easy to damage your walls or tile when your not taking your time... So in whatever you do, take your time on the task to avoid extra mistakes, you've got this! ☺️🔨
You helped save my security deposit!🤣
🙌 woohoo!!!
Use a scrapper
I can't use a blow dryer because there's no socket nearby. What can I do so I can reuse it? I just want to turn it
Can you buy an extension cord or borrow it from somewhere else in the house?
Yow this gave me water bumps maaaan lol
Good old vinegar works too.
Omg, really?
If I had more on my wall, i would certainly try it. What kind of vinegar?
goof off or goo gone would have made the sticky stuff come off easier
Thanks! My tenant left hers behind for me to do. Uuggh.
I'm sorry that you have to deal with taking them up, it's a very sticky process but not impossible.
Just be careful, in the mist of taking them up, I burned myself by accident with the iron 😭
Rubbing alcohol, paper towels and plastic wrap. Let alcohol covered paper towels soak in covered with wrap. Check every 20 minutes or so. Comes off easily!
I’m a maintenance tech and people in my building use this shit all the time.
Don't use your blow-dryer in the shower if you have water in the tub. Lol I'm concerned for the people with a clog in their drain.
Definitely a great idea, safety first! 🥇
I tried every everything, alcohol, knife, blow dryer. The adhesive is not coming out 😢
I have one more proposition for you....
I don't know if this will work but what if you used parchment paper and an iron over it to really heat it up?
I used this technique to remove my vinyl tile that wouldn't budge. Please be careful...
at some point I decided that the "200"( each apartment is different) dollar fix wasn't enough for me to sit and worry about trying to get it up since when they refinished the bathroom they did a bad job. so I Was still careful but not as careful before because no mater how hard I tried to take it inch by inch it still ripped the glaze off the wall.
Wow, yeah I totally understand.
I pray it all works out for you, good luck. 🤞
DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND USE A PLASTIC SPATULA TO SCRAPE OFF THE PLASTIC AND THE STICKY GOO!!
You can apply pressure without worrying about scratching your tile.
Hot water, steam, goo gone and cleaner all work BUT USE THE PLASTIC SPATULA AND SAVE YOURSELF HOURS AND EXCRUCIATING PAIN
Hot water and a scrubby daddy! Dad did the trick!
See? I KNEW this would happen. Everyone goes crazy online for these peel and stick shelves, but I never see anyone tries to remove them until now. Everyone swears that these shelves are "renter-friendly", but from what I see you had to do, I would argue that it is not. I would never have your patience. I'll stick with the suction cup shelves.
I agree, I'll be making a video about all of the things that renters need to avoid. Some of them are just not worth it!!!!!
Would you be okay if I feature your comment in my next video?
@@Abbiehousediy absolutely!
It’s so crazy. I’ve tried everything even these suggestions and nothing works.
Someone in my comment section suggested pouring boiling water on it. Be careful!!!
me moving tomorrow like ✍️
Lol good luck
mold?? babby pleaes be careful
It didn't cross my mind until later. Unfortunately this bathroom is a bit below standard but next time I see something that might appear to be mold, I'll take another route.
Thanks for your concern and feedback 🤠
That’s not mold that’s dirt 🤢
Thanks! Now I know not to buy these!!
So glad I could help!
Completely useless.
Have you tried using boiling water?
Someone in the comment section says that it worked for them!
You are a life saver thank you so much!!
You're very welcome!!
