I am not promoting the product, just relaying information received.
In Canada we used to be able to get Pure Citrus for removing self-adhesive stamps from a chain of stores which has stopped carrying it. Since my can of spray was getting close to empty I found the manufacturer web site and sent an inquiry requesting alternate retail sources (since their minimum direct order is US$2000).
I received a nice reply that Walmart, Home Depot and Princess Auto all should have it in Canada but when I investigated they didn't have it either.
So,,,, I emailed again with my lack of results and told them what I want it for and where I originally heard about Pure Citrus. There is this funny group of people at Stamporama who sometimes mention its use in stamp collecting.
Anyways, the point of all this is that I got another reply today from the company (Technical Chemical Company / Blue Magic) including a special offer for Stamporama members.
Here is the message:
"Brian,

Nice offer! I do find it amazing that their distributor closest to New Brunswick is Saskatchewan!
Now here is my question: Other than philatelic uses, what does one use it for? It might be worth a case.

It states that it is a 100% natural non-aerosol air freshener. There is nothing on the can about stamps or adhesives. But it works.

The original post is only letting members know of a special offer for an item that many use in their hobby pursuits. Since the poster is not directly involved with the sale, it is not self-promotion. It is no different than a member posting about a special offer for say Dennison Hinges, where to find a good UV light, stamp albums or album pages.

This sounds very much like one or two products available in the UK: HG Sticker Remover and Sticky Stuff Remover (De-Solv-it Technology).
The latter tackles: gum, tar adhesive, wax, wet (oil based) paint, crayon, grease, sticky labels and grime.
From personal experience, 'everyone should have a product like this'. I've used it for removing baked on masking tape (time and patience needed); those nuisance labels that manufacturers put on glassware, crockery etc.; removing gunk off Hagner strips and PVC outer sleeves. And just today, I got a puncture in my expensive silicone filled 'wrist rest' mouse pad. The very sticky, nasty silicone oozed out everywhere and this stuff cleaned it off nicely.
My question: can I use a bicycle puncture repair patch on my mouse pad?

"My question: can I use a bicycle puncture repair patch on my mouse pad?"
If you are an industrial user of your mouse pad, you may want to use a car tire repair patch instead.

Hey, you've given me an idea! I could just cut a piece of tyre and stick it over the top. I should then get quite a bit of extra mileage. Now what sort of tread pattern should I use?

Ooh, I don't think we get those over here. Damn! My mouse pad is leaking again.... out with the Sticky Stuff Remover.

Seems I got the wrong end of the stick. There happens to be other products with the citrus, actually orange, odour. In fact the spray version of Sticky Stuff Remover is of that type.
These have been been mentioned on another board.
If this citrus air freshener does the job with self adhesive stamps, then it may well be as effective on other sticky residues too.
