I have a pine table with a finish on it. I put a nonskid mat under the table cloth so it wouldn't slide, however, the nonskid mat left a bumpy sticky adhesive on the table and I can't get it off. Is there anything I can use without messing up the finish?

Goof Off is great stuf for removing adhesives and other nasty stuff, but it will probably harm the finish. I can think of nothing that would remove the adhesive without doing damage. Perhaps gentle scraping with a razor blade?

You might try some nail polish remover or other cleaner on a spot that is finished such as a leg of the table that is hidden from view... to test and see if it will harm the finish.

I think that your best bet is to use plain mineral spirits. It should not dissolve the finish. Acetone and/or xylene are present in some of the products suggested and they stand a pretty good chance of dissolving even old finishes.

Goo gone! Works wonders on adhesives and is safe for many finishes...

I'm with Bob. Mineral spirits is a pretty good cleaner and desolves most adhesives. Wouldn't try that nail polish remover, its acetone, pretty harsh. Most manufactured furniture has a lacquer finish. Mineral spirits will not harm lacquer.

I agree with the answers above concerning using mineral spirits or the product known as Goo Gone. I have used Goo Gone to remove the rosin residue on a violin. It did no harm to the finish.

You can apply either solvent using a high-quality paper towel or clean, soft cloth. Please be sure to follow any precautionary things on the labels when using any paint products.

Try 90% rubbing alcohol (not the 73%). That stuff works wonders taking adhesive off. Try in a non obvious part to see if your finish can take it. I used it on an old TV screen that would not come clean with windex, etc and it took years of goo off with little effort. Anytime I have any stubborn dirt or sticky anything I use this.

WD 40 works even when goo b gone stuff doesn't and it doesn't harm the finish but to be safe anything you try do as Ohioguy said and try it on a hidden spot first.
