Glue tips: how to remove hot-melt glue

There are different ways to remove hot melt adhesive from a surface, depending on the type of surface and the amount of adhesive to be removed. Here are some options to remove hot melt adhesive:

  1. Use a glue remover: There are specific glue removers on the market designed to remove hot melt glue. These products work by dissolving the glue so that it can be removed more easily.
  2. Use warm water and a damp cloth: In some cases, warm water and a damp cloth can help remove hot melt glue. Moisten the surface with warm water and use a damp cloth to soften the glue. Then wipe away the glue with a dry cloth.
  3. Use a heat source: In some cases, a heat source, such as a hair dryer or heat gun, can help soften hot melt glue so it can be removed more easily. Use the heat source to soften the glue and then remove the glue with a damp cloth.

It is important to remember that removing hot melt adhesive from some surfaces may not be possible, or the surface may be damaged during the removal process. It is therefore advisable to do a small test on an inconspicuous area before removing the adhesive on a larger surface. Always be careful with removal agents, carefully consult the documentation of each agent or device!
