Mono-adhesive-how to remove it

[febgirl]

I used mono-adhesive on picture for my son's open house board. Now I don't know how to get it off the pictures so it doesn't ruin them. Help!

Do you have an adhesive eraser? They work great on cardstock - probably even better on photos.

I have lots of experience putting glue where it shouldn't be - LOL

I'm not quite sure if I understand your situation: are you talking about trying to pull the picture off the board, or getting mono-adhesive off the back of the picture?

If you are trying to get the adhesive off the back of the picture, you might want to consider something called a rubber cement pick-up or crepe eraser. I often use one if some of my liquid adhesive seeps out from under something I have glued down (after it has dried). It is hard crepe rubber and it kind of rolls the adhesive into little bits that you can lift off with your fingers. I don't know if it will work for your situation, but it might be worth a try.

Sometimes they are hard to find. I tried Michael's, Craft Warehouse, JoAnns, Staples, Wal-Mart--and finally found it in the fine arts section of my local hobby shop. Here is a link to a picture of one.

I've previously used a product called 'Un-du' to remove photos which have been securely stuck down on pages.

Here's a link to the product info. You don't need to use much and it's photo safe.
