The sticky residue thread

Fuck this shit.

I buy packs of empty jewel cases just to avoid dealing with shit like this. And broken teeth on the inside. Fucking annoying.

Broken teeth might even be worse. Have a few albums that have ALL the teeth missing.

You can use eucalyptus oil to get the sticky residue off, though the plastic may be slightly affected. Others suggest WD-40 or several other products, but eucalyptus oil has a more girly scent. If it doesn't quite get 100% perhaps you can bother handling something more toxic like isopropyl alcohol just to get the last bit.

I thought this thread was going to be about another kind of sticky substance tbh.

Calling isopropyl alcohol "toxic" is a bit of a stretch unless you're planning on using it as a cocktail mixer, as it's literally the stuff in your medicine cabinet and hand sanitizer. It’s actually the safer bet for most plastics because it evaporates before it can do any real structural damage
