Remove Blu-tack from wall with WD40

WD40 is there anything it cannot do? Use it to remove blu tack from a wall! Note that you should test on an inconspicuous spot first to make sure it doesnt stain, but for me it worked like a charm!!

that's not the wd40 its the friction cause by excessive rubbing by the cloth you don't need wd40 I have removed my blue/white tack with just constant rubbing with the side of my thumb also try if it is dry blue/white tack putting some fresh tack on-top then rub away with your thumb or a cloth (but not a cloth with ebrased part otherwise this will remove some paint as well)

@lilhigsbill Hi! The WD40 actually dissolves the bluetac, which makes it much easier to remove. I had tried rubbing it, but unfortunately it was old and would not come off ... or if it did it removed some of the paint. The WD40 disolves the bluetac so that all you end up with is a light blue smudge on the paper towel and nothing at all on the wall.

Try it yourself! Just spray it on to a thin smudge of blutac, dont do any rubbing and watch the blutac dissolve away over a few minutes :)

I didn't really get an oily stain but perhaps try sugar soap or some other detergent?
