hot water and a little elbow grease = no problem

the secret is not to pick at it.. let the water do most of the work.. then when it gets super weak peel then scratch the $h!& out of it, with the hot water still running over it.

I usually just leave it alone and pick the sticker off the filter intake the next day...

I guess I'm not the super careful Mr Overkill on Caution I once was...

:irked: lol this thread made me look like a paranoid lunatic. Ill have to print this one out for the therapist jk:screwy::grinno:
 
I just tossed mine in and rolled it onto the sticker so I didnt see it...and my wild festae have been cruising all around it. My friends named it Da Luv Tub lol
 
I can't believe some of you lol Not making fun....just sort of comical. I run it under the faucet long enough to get the sticker off the bottom and then pop it in the tank.
