what i tend to do is after removing said label dab the affected area with the
sticky side of the label brings it off a treat (everyones a winner)

When I first read this I thought you you meant this was on the disc itself. I now gather you mean the case .

All the best

sorry everyone should have made it clearer.

Isopropanol or lighter fluid.

[Urien Rheged]

Furniture polish works very well.

[ark383]

sticky stuff remover. can buy from wilkinson or diy stores.

it's a yellow spray can, and works wonders on lots of sticky things.

wd40 - been using it for years to remove stupid stickers etc off videos, ld, dvd & now blu-ray/hd-dvd

[Pincho Paxton]

I too thought he meant the disc.... I just use washing up liquid, and it works fine.

[Shoka]

Petrol lighter fluid works wonders

Lighter fluid is what you should use.
It's dirt cheap and you can get it from any Tesco, Asda or any large store.

It's an old toy collectors trick (for removing price tags). Lighter fluid removes the sticky residue without causing any damage to the surface once wiped off

Couldn't agree more. I just got Terminator 2 and by the time i'd managed to remove the three stickers on the case itself before I could even open the flippin' thing, the box is resembling a fly trap with the amount of adhesive on it !
