I have this tweed G&G case that had tape and shipping labels on it. They left some residue and dark spots on the surface. Does any know if Goo Gone is ok or would it harm the tweed fabric. Is there any product out there safe for Tweed? Brad, could you ask around the shop?
Thanks in advance.

I would try an upholstery cleaner, similar to something that an auto detailer might use instead of Goo Gone.

Resolve carpet cleaner works well for spots, just spray it on, maybe a brush, and then towel it off. I'm sure other upholstery cleaners and stuff could work too ^^

Read the back of a can of WD40. It is great at killing adhesives like tape and decals. I would think a little on a rag followed by one of the carpet cleaners on a different rag should do the trick.

Good luck,

good idea john.

Scrape it and light up.lol

I'd be a bit wary of using WD 40 as it's petroleum based and therefore could leave a stain or residue of its own,just plain rubbing alcohol should do the trick,I have used it many times to remove residue from labels. Acetone works really well but can react with some fabrics and cause fading or even melting if the material contains plastics.If you test a small area with acetone with no ill effects that would work the best.

As well, it may dissolve the adhesive used to glue the tweed to the case.

Be wary!
