Peel the label off of a Walmart pharmacy drug bottle
At least for the "pill bottles" we get here (brown or clear plastic, with plastic snap-on, or child-proof caps/tops) and the labels the pharmacy uses around here... if you fill the bottle with boiling hot water, from the kettle, put the cap on, and let the capped bottle stand for a minute... the label peels off very nicely, and remains quite sticky. However, a lot of the adhesive still remains on the bottle. (so you have to live with that stickiness, or apply a new blank label, if you want to reuse the bottle.. which is what I like to do.)
Before you take the cap off... let it cool down... and careful handling it... when removing the label.?
Best regards and wishes.
P.S. I have used a label, removed like this,? to try to get "gum" off of stuff... in my experience, mileage varies... but, it usually gets some gum off... occasionally, on some items, it makes a mess... so I always proceed carefully.?
