Goof Off is Good Stuff ; Not For the Timid, It's Like a Chain-saw-in-a-Can

by popsrocks popsrocks is a Top Reviewer on Epinions in Home and Garden, Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 50, Aug 24 '07
Pros: Cleans up dried paint VERY well
Cons: Care must be used. the small squirt flip is sometimes hard to get out.
A CHAINSAW IN A CAN!?! I'll explain what I mean in a bit. I use Goof Off for only two household applications. More on that in a bit too. A Bit of Info on a Product That Uses Just a Bit of Liquid Goof Off, the Ultimate Remover is another ...

Goof Off - Too Toxic for Me

by elzora elzora is a Top Reviewer on Epinions in Home and Garden, Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 100, Apr 28 '07
Pros: Removes everything
Cons: TOO MANY TO LIST
Goof Off is a liquid product that comes in a small 4.5 ounce tin can, and dubbs itself as The Ultimate Remover. I was introduced to it a couple of years ago when my husband and I were in charge of our teen Church Camp. We were cleaning ...

Goofy? Off-ful? Heroic?

by nagels nagels is a Top Reviewer on Epinions in Home and Garden, Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 200, Mar 23 '07
Pros: Can remove what seemed impossibly permanent.
Cons: Not to be used casually. Use with extreme caution and common sense.
It’s a dubious honor, but an honor just the same to have a product named after yourself. No it’s not Wonder Bread, Perfect Pretenders, Power-Ade, Special K, DumDum suckers, or Mr. Wonderful’s Potato Factory Chips. It’s a Valspar product called Goof ...

Pros: Excellent paint remover , great for other messes

Goof Off. It's the Ultimate Remover according to the bright yellow 4.5 oz can. I wouldn't be without it.It's one of those rare "wonder " products that actually does work miracles. Between the crafts I do, the handy andy stuff hubby does and the basic ...

Goof Off -- Works........well, sort of

by jolly36 , May 11 '05
Pros: good for removing sticker residue and paint drops
Cons: did not work when I used it for ink, strong smell
When I decided to paint my kitchen, I had no idea what I was getting myself into. It sounded so simple at first, simply remove the previous owner’s decorative border, and repaint the entire kitchen to match our tastes. What seemed so simple, soon ...

Horribly Toxic and Wonderfully Effective!

by midlife_crisis , Apr 25 '07
Pros: The fastest-cutting solvent I've used in the past 50 years.
Cons: Your throat may start closing up a few seconds after beginning to use it.
I received a very valuable metal sample last week (a twenty-five pound round bar of 97% tungsten) that had seemingly permanent black, tarry remnants from the sintering process, extensive markings of weight and dimensions in red magic marker, yellow oil ...

Pros: It Works! It Works! It Works! It Works! Better than anything else!
Cons: None!Nada! Nyet!
Oh common folks! What other product works as well, as advertised and can be depended upon with some smell! Must we apply "Political correctness" to everything. THIS STUFF WORKS!!!!!! While removing some of those self sticking linoleum squares with a heat gun, it left behind a sticky residue that you could see and, would have stuck my dogs paws to the floor if she'd been allowed on it. Tried to remove the adhesive with alcohol (denatured, not drinking), acetone (bad move, takes the finish and color with it off wood floors, paint thinnner, and products called "Ooops" and another called "Krud Kutter Adhesive Remover" (save your money, this stuff is junk!). But, trusty Goof Off was spread on and almost immediately wiped off with paper towels and the goo came off without a scraper or anything other than the paper towels. BUY IT!IT WORKS!

Most Excellent!!!
by jatoria ,Feb 08 '05
Pros: Did what it said it would do.
Cons: Sickening smell.
It may smell awful, but since this stuff works instantly, I don't have to endure it for too long. It amazingly just dissolved dried old latex paint on my aluminum window frames, my sidewalks, and on my wood finished cupboards without hurting the finish. It just wiped away candle wax that had spilled on my tile floor and coffee table. It ate away label residue too. This stuff is SO awesome.

The final solution!
by bullterrier ,May 26 '05
Pros: Works quickly.... Inexpensive.....
Cons: sometimes the smell can be a big powerful.....
I bought GoofOff, not really knowing what it was I was buying. I just needed something to remove 'stuff' that gets stuck on, or spilled onto, or accidentally jumps onto items around the house.

It has never failed me......I have gotten the goo from velcro fasteners removed from my back taillights on my van....made a hard job easy.

I got paint out of my grand daughters school shirt....which would have been a very expensive item to have ruined. It's back to school now for it......

And now that I've used up the whole container.....I can't find anymore for sale in this area....and so I'm frantically on the look out for more GoofOff...

It's my final solution to any problem......
Thanks
Wendy Robson

Bad Choice for my plastic windshield
by chuckup ,May 02 '07
Pros: Has worked well on numerous adhesives.
Cons: Personally don't feel that the warnings on the can are sufficient.
I have used this product for several years. It's always worked fairly well.... until the other day. I had taped a for sale sign on the windshield of my scooter. The adhesive tape left some residue. So, what do I do but grab the Goof Off. Big Mistake. It not only left a giant smudge on the plastic windshield and it didn't take the adhesive off. When I rubbed, the smudge got bigger. I guess it probably dissolved some of the windshield material and now I can't see through the windshield and will have to buy a new one. BE CAREFUL WITH THIS STUFF WHEN YOU GET IT NEAR PLASTIC!!! THIS MISTAKE IS GOING TO COST ME AROUND $75.00 FOR A NEW WINDSHIELD. I had just put the bike up for sale. Now I won't be able to sell it to anyone like that!
One other point. Wish the manufacturer would make an easier opener. I don't know how many times I've practically broken a fingernail trying to open the applicator.

Good Off 2
by mikejo2 ,Mar 21 '09
Pros: It works with only a little scrubbing, to totally remove marks.
Cons: It's dangerous I guess.
THis stuff works well to take off permanent marker writing from items I was selling on Ebay.
But, I got dematitis on my head the next day, I think from scratching my head with a hand that still had the solvent on it. Now the whole scalp is swollen and tender and I had to see a doctor.

So I may use this again, since it works well, but I will wear latex gloves to see if that keeps it under control!!!!
