What's the best way people have found to remove labels (and sticky gunk) from yogurt/shampoo/soda/etc bottles?

any solid pack-leading techniques?
thanks

If it's a paper sticker, I would soak it in warm soap water for a couple of hours. You'll probably end up having to scrape most of it off with your fingernail.

Alternatively, you can probably steam the glue loose and peel the sticker off. You'll probably still have to scrape some of the glue residue off though.

Soaking and scraping sounds like work. I don't like work.
thanks (though it might come to ye olde elbow grease if I can't find school supplies hehe).

Its in any store that sells school supplies , even drug store has them.
Do NOT soak them , its very strong . It only need same amount as when you apply decals.

There are other ones that use limonene (essential lemon oil) as it cut through the glue easily as well.

I've used eucalyptus oil in the past (it works, but eucalypts are so common around these parts, you can't but fall over them.).
