removing sticky name thingys from clothes :/

[mafibisha]

So you know those sticky name patch-thingys that some people put inside their kids clothes near the brand label, especially when they go away to camp?

Well my cousin did that on lots of her DSs clothes, that she just handed down to youngest DS. He really likes a few of the sports sweatshirts, but they all have his cousin's name in them!

Any idea how to remove them? He'll probably still wear them, but even I would rather his cousins' name be removed.

TIA!

You can get a fabric safe adhesive remover at any craft store . Have you tried goo gone or WD 40 ? Good luck .

Thanks for the reply. I didn't know WD40 worked on clothes! I have that so will try it first. And it washes out then?

You can also cover the area with a white cloth or towel and iron the area. The adhesive will transfer to the cloth. I used to work at a restaurant when I was younger and they required you to wear stickers that promoted specials. I frequently forgot to remove them before I laundered it.
