We have a nice pair of "rubberised" binoculars, but the "rubber" has

Any other possible ways of removing the stickiness? (Apart from angle
grinders, of course).

Very fine emery cloth?

"Sticky stuff remover".

Ok, but I've never heard of that before. Handy to know though.


I thought everybody had heard of it, most often used to get label residue
off furniture etc.


Does it work on the worst of the labels on glass jars ?
