How did the steel wool do?
I haven't used steel wool but a green 3M pad requires some elbow grease. After a 15 minute soak in hot water though they peel off decently.

Awesome. I've been using milk. Works great except for any water situation, like in a cooler and the ice melts. Will be trying this next time. Does it leave a nasty residue in the tub after you soak the labels off?

I use this recipe, no problem with the labels falling off. The glycerin and vinegar helps keep the glue pliable. Comes of easily with hot water just like the regular gelatin.
Sticks on easy, comes off easier. I don't think I'll ever use anything else.
Like ladies underwear........with labels "come's off easy" is the most important consideration.
Too true. Dark Horse must use some kind of dark magic to apply their labels-- 24 hours of soaking in OxiClean and I still have to get after it with steel wool for a good ten minutes each.
Short's, on the other hand... is a little looser with her affections.
