Default HELP with Goo-Gone spill!!

On Thu, 27 Aug 2009 14:52:47 -0700 (PDT), against all advice,
something compelled bstevens , to say:

We have a brand new home. I was cleaning some stickers off the glass
fireplace covers and spilled about half a cup full of goo-gone onto
the fireplace hearth. It's a very light, cream-colored limestone. I
wiped it up as much as I could, but it left a wet-looking spot on the
stone about a foot wide. Is there some way I can get it out? Will it
dissipitate through the stone over time?

I'm thinking of heating it with a small propane torch, perhaps.... a
blow dryer had no effect.

Please help - this is our brand new home, we moved in 1 week ago, and
this looks horrible, right in the living room. Please reply to the
group.



Put goo-gone on the whole stone so it will look even.

On a more serious note, I'd contact the manufacturer and see if
they have a suggestion.




Thanks,
Ron M.
