Redditor Reluctantseahorse shared the cleaning hacks in a viral post.

The experienced cleaner unveiled multiple ways of getting sticky residue off glass jars.

“You have several options,” she said.

“One: Soak in hot water with dish soap for about half an hour, then scrub scrub scrub with the scrubby side of a sponge.”

A second method, she added, is to pick up a Mr. Clean Magic Eraser.

“If soaking and scrubbing with a regular scrubby sponge doesn’t work, scrub with a magic eraser after soaking,” she said.

A third technique is to rely on Goo Gone.

She explained that although the product has “various names in different countries,” it’s consistently reliable.

“It’s like an oily liquid that breaks down the adhesive better than soapy water,” she explained.

“You still need to scrub scrub scrub with either the sponge or magic eraser.”

For a homemade solution, she shared a recipe for homemade Goo Gone.

“Mix three tablespoon baking soda and two tablespoon vegetable oil (or any oil, olive, coconut, etc),” she said.

“Use a cloth to aggressively scrub [the] mixture onto the surface, then rinse. This is my favorite option, by the way.

“Sincerely, a woman with far too many jars.”

People were impressed with the Redditor’s obvious intensive adhesive-removing experience.

“She’s got the answers,” said one commenter.

“She’s good at making things disappear,” added another.

“She’s good at scrubbing,” joke a third.

Others shared their go-to tricks that have worked wonders for them.

“In addition to all of this – using the side of an old credit card works wonderfully to scrape then scrub scrub scrub,” said one commenter.
