We use this almost exclusively. It works on 99% of the adhesives we run into for removal. We have tried a few other brands to try to save a few dollars but keep going back to Rapid Remover.
I use WD40. It removes leftover vinyls residue, paper sticker residue, product labels. You can use it to defrost car locks, lubricate printers, lubricate doors, clean leather, clean burned pans with filthy grease on it and whatnot. Everyone should have WD40 at home.

LOL! Don't inhale. Take note of this. I got a big breath of it a few times. It will make your mouth, tongue, throat, etc go Numb for 30 minutes. Not real pleasant.

Ya know, this is something that astounds me every time I read this kinda stuff. It goes with..... using a cheaper ink for your printer, cheaper media, cheaper supplies or hardware. Cutting corners to save what ?? PENNIES ??
If you build the going prices into your work, you're totally covered. If you keep your prices where they are and use lesser materials, you're cheating your customers. If you're using cheaper stuff to compete with the schmuck down the street, since when did slackers set your reputation in motion ?? Why make your MO the same as some hack ??
When you find something which works, why look further, just because it's a little expensive ?? Just pout it into your pricing.

It's actually citrus based and not solvent based so it won't harm you.

I wouldn't go that far. I use it occasionally to remove old gild from wood award plaques that I have to update - gold and all. I've even used it to remove dried One-Shot in a pinch.. anything that can dissolve petroleum products probably shouldn't be inhaled.

It's the only adhesive remover we've ever used. Windows, vehicles, banners, floors, signs, etc.

Beware..don't get it on your clothes. Got some of this stuff on my shirt and jeans and once I washed them, they were burned through in multiple spots

You should probably re read the MSDS on this stuff.
I use it all the time when removing. Always use gloves and a mask though, probably should have safety glasses on as well but then always fog up on me.

I hate using a respirator. Rapid tack is top notch, but I switched to a much safer chemical. " Vinyl off reflective remover" . It's biodegradable, got no odor, no resperator needed. It's almost as good as rapid tack.
Walmart sells stuff in the same class as rapid tack called Turtle wax sticker and decal remover. It's a green spray can located in the automotive section. I buy about 20 cans of that a year 5 bucks a can.
