Sorry for reopening the thread but about the lid, when I took off the lid sticker a few weeks ago, I thought everything was taken off... But at a coffee shop one day The residue of the sticker was still there - or is it discoloration of the sticker... I don't know. Warm water doesn't really do it...

Was wondering if any of you guys have an idea in removing the residue w/o damaging the lid.

Was thinking about putting on the lid sticker by ideastylenet but who knows.. maybe I won't.

This works perfectly. Not only do the stickers come off cleanly, the oil takes care of the very slight mark left once all the glue has come off. It is literally like the stickers were never there.

Bezzz... How?

Apply a thin layer of oil: NOT kerosene!!! to a flat piece of metal pen knife blade and slip the edge of the blade in the side of the sticker and slowly inch your way up the sticker and whooo... Sticker comes off. <-- I got proof.

I had used this method and experimented it yesterday night and after pulling that sticker off, use a cloth to wipe away the oil will do and your tp will be as good as new.

Confirm no residue, no scar, no scratch, no need skills to pull the sticker off and no need to use finger or thumbs or whatever to rub the gluey stuffs off.

100% confirm, or else money back guarantee. :-)

So would this be motor oil, vegetable oil, freaky sex lube or what?

Oh well... I guess the slight white color is more towards the discoloration from the sticker.... don't want to risk putting WD40 or some oil... it seems that the lid is made of some rubbery plastic and I may regret even more trying to take that discoloration off...
