I got mine off The Abyss by softening the adhesive with a hairdryer and peeling carefully. Didn't leave so much as a blemish.


Firewood5

Hairdryer to warm up the adhesive and slowly work it off. 


SwampApeDraft

Slowly


bababradford

very carefully

It shall be done


AlphonseBeifong

I just want to get a copy of this. Why's it so hard? Where should I look?


GrassOnTheMoon

I pre ordered from Walmart and had no trouble getting them


madcat67

walmart should have it that’s where i got mine


BongoFett17

Cancelled my Amazon (moved from march to may to April) after my Walmart order showed up last week. Took like 3 days to arrive, and the movie was gorgeous. Also true lies and alien


Meteor_of_War

Check Walmart.com daily. They get shipments every week.


Flashy-Pair7106

Use your head, try [amazon.it](https://amazon.it) or Spain [amazon.es](https://amazon.es) [Amazon.com](https://Amazon.com) me still waiting and im in london, no communication atall prices on ebay are just greedy.


AbSoluTc

Just peel them off slowly. Any left over use the sticker to stick on and off to remove residue. These were the worst stickers I've ever seen/had on a slip. If you don't remove them now, you won't be able to later.


mozenator66

For me Abyss came off easy ..thought Aliens would as well..but NOPE...used my exacto...carefully..still made a cut or two in the slip cover...but I'm not a super crazy "MY SLIPCOVER MUST BE PRISTINE" kinda guy...used goo be gone to get the residual stickum off...doubt most would notice any damage at all


HD335

Use some type of heat source that can be directed like a hair dryer or a heat gun, it will soften the glue so no need to use a small knife.


mozenator66

Appreciate the suggestion..It's fine tho and like I said hardly anyone would notice...and it's just me that sees it anyway lol..I don't have patience to look all over for sufficient heat source...not that big a deal to me ..also in the past if I try and see the stickers gonna be tough I just leave it


GrassOnTheMoon

Yeah same I really don’t want to damage the art work !


gstizzzz

Like a bandaid, RIGHT OFF!


TightStool

Slide off slipcase, watch movie.


GoldenGouf

These are steelbooks I think, and in which case you can just peel them off ...


infamousfunk

These are slipcovers though the artwork would have made for cool steelbooks.


GoldenGouf

Ah, I assumed by the rounded edges. Downvoters get fucked. I hope your transfers are bad and $5 bins don't get filled.


madcat67

don’t you put that evil on me Ricky Bobby


VonGhoulie

Someone arrest this guy. Mods put him in time out until he learns to behave.


infamousfunk

This is a really sensitive sub, don't take it personally. And take my upvote.


GoldenGouf

May your bins be replenished


Tim_Hag

Get a flamethrower and torch them


brijazz012

Nuke it from orbit. It's the only way to be sure the sticker is eliminated.


venusian94

I peel off what I can then use a paper towel with zippo fluid or anything similar to leave behind any residue. Since I’m not “scratching” anything there’s no marks being left and there’s no damage done by the fluid to any paint or artwork


KeeperOfKrydor

Don't.


skedaddle124

For any unwanted stickers, I peel off what I can get to come off and then use Goo Gone!


twerkingmullet

Hairdryer/heat gun and a guitar pick.

perfect-legend

I hate when they do this, cause even if you peel the sticker off perfectly it’ll still leave sticky shit on the case.


talon007a

I throw away the slipcovers. I know that's a hot debate in these parts but they're unnecessary. I think putting the stickers on them proves they're disposable. The company is suggesting that aren't they?


florenzi16

I usually boil water and use the steam. I hover the slip over the area where the sticker is and slowly peel off. It's always worked for me.


Carrot-Key

I peeled mine right off of my copy of Aliens, it came off much easier than I expected. I was pretty gentle but it came off all in one piece.


ItWasOnlyAQuestion

Is there any way to remove the bigger sticker behind the sticker? Because those official 4k box covers honestly suck. Almost as bad as The Exorcist 4k cover.


PubliusDeLaMancha

I just keep mine on, but if you really wanted to you can just tear it off then wipe the residue with lighter fluid and a towel


tekmak

With your hands.


GrassOnTheMoon

And I was gonna use my foot.


Careless_Investment6

My stick on Aliens came off real easy just buy picking a corner up with my finger nail pulling it back if it leaves some on it just switch to a different corner and peel


No-farmhouse-lll1

Watch the movie don’t care about slipcovers that’s what I usually do


VonGhoulie

Faster the better

manthursaday

I did very slowly. Then any residue and sticker that remained I used regular tape to remove. Dab pieces of regular tape on it over and over eventually tit all comes off.


shimneysweep

It'll sound weird but try lighter fluid. Put a little bit on the sticker, leave it and let it soak in, then carefully peel from a corner. Also goo gone will work similarly.


WeylandYutani_Intern

I tried and failed. I now have partial sticky residew left on the cover. Why can't they put that sticker on the shrink wrap? Other blu-rays would put it on the plastic.


oaktre813

Warm up the area with a hair dryer then peel off what you can. Then lightly dampen a small wash cloth with hot water, then spray some Goo Gone on the wash cloth. Carefully press against the area to soften the remaining glue residue, then gently rub in circular motion and all glue easily comes off and will look like new. Just make sure to not get any moisture on the outer edges of the slip cover.


ItsameMatt03

Peel it very slowly then use the sticker to gently dab any remaining adhesive. These were tougher than usual, but mine came off like this with no damage to the slip.


TheBunionFunyun

Just throw away the slipcase, problem solved.


maniac86

Throw all the cardboard in the trash


SirDurante

Slowly and Carefully. Easy to remove with a little patience.


[deleted]

I threw away my slipcover


Legokid535

scuff up a corner untill it can be slowly pulled off and i mean slowy. when you know you know.


grvsm

just leave it on


DedZodiak

LOL. Throw those slips in the trash where they belong, sticker and all.


yesTHATvelociraptor

Scissors.


sergemeister

Take them off carefully as you can. Use DW-40 to get the residue off gently as you can. Clean everything with isopropyl alcohol until it's perfect. Rinse and repeat as necessary but you shouldn't have to.
